The below fragment is one of the favourite kinds of examples in the Ruby world:
5.times { |i| print i, " " }
It uses the times method on Integer and prints:
0 1 2 3 4
There are many implementations of this in other languages, for instance Ruby’s ‘times()’ function in C# | Of Code and Me (which the WordPress.com editor fucked up as it replaced Action<int> with Action which is a totally different thing, so the gist with code is below.
public static class IntExtensions
{
public static void Times(this int i, Action func)
{
for(int j = 0; j < i; j++)
{
func(j);
}
}
}
Which you use as
5.Times(i => Console.Write(i));
It’s slightly off as it prints:
01234
I know; nitpicking, but this code works (did I ever tell I love .NET fiddle?):
5.Times(i => Console.Write("{0} ", i));
Well, Mason Wheeler encouraged Asbjørn Heid for the below Ruby Mania in Delphi; just read the comments at In C# nearly everything is an object, so when writing a unit test for a string…
Since the WordPress.com editor fucks up TProc<Integer> into TProc and TProc behaves differently from TProc<Integer>, I’ve included a gist link with the actual code below.
program RubyManiaConsoleProject;
uses
System.SysUtils;
type
TRubyMania = record helper for ShortInt
procedure times(const IterBody: TProc);
end;
procedure TRubyMania.times(const IterBody: TProc);
var
i: Integer;
begin
for i := 0 to Self-1 do
IterBody(i);
end;
begin
5.times(
procedure(i: Integer)
begin
Write(i, ' ');
end
);
end.
It also shows why I hardly use anonymous methods in Delphi: they’re way too verbose.

XSD enumerations are nice as they can be used to restrict simple XSD types to a set of values.
But they can also be hard if the set changes over time: restricting further is not possible, but extending isn’t always easy either.
Some interesting links:
