Returning the value of a block over an Enumeration when not nil?

Your need is very common but unfortunately there is no such abstraction in the core. However Facets guys identified this gap a long time ago and implemented Enumerable#find_yield (see also Enumerable#map_detect ).

You can use Enumerable#find to iterate through the array until you get your result.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
