The Battleroom Gem

Battleroom is a training program designed to give novice Ruby programmers countless reps working with variables, manipulating data structures, and defining and invoking methods. Special attention has been paid to catching and providing plain English explanations for common Ruby exceptions (think NoMethodError, NameError, ArgumentError, and so on). The program also introduces novice programmers to semantic naming, proper Ruby indentation, and a number of conventions they will encounter in Ruby frameworks like Sinatra and Rails.

The program takes its name from the Battle Room in Ender's Game, to which students of Battle School go to train.
