Mostly the exercises for the chapters on Arrays and Hashes. Hashes killed me! I didn't 
get any right! It's getting better because I've re-read the chapter and studied my 
notes again and I actually feel better about it. Sorry for this post! I guess I was 
venting or something. Ah...I feel much better now...

                Give us some examples.

                Could I be putting too much stock into the exercises? That's where I'm
                getting frustrated. For example, I'm treating them as "test" exercises
                and when I don't get them correct, I deem the chapter a failure, which
                is silly since there are 2 or 3 questions per chapter. Maybe I should
                treat them as "examples" instead.

                                what exactly are you having trouble with? why don't you
                try writing a script
                                that you think might be useful to you. that is how you
                really learn how it
                                works
