One last example: open(params[:url]) if URI(params[:url]).scheme == 'http'. Looks good, but if you manage to create a folder called “http:”, the attacker can read local files with http:/../../../../../etc/passwd (hello, CarrierWave!). Yes, unlikely the victim has such folder but it is a perfect showcase why URL validation is hard and why open-uri is a disaster for Ruby community.
Using open-uri? Check your code - you're playing with fire!

The higher-order operation that represents this pattern is called reduce (or sometimes fold). You can think of it as folding up the array, one element at a time. When summing numbers, you’d start with the number zero and, for each element, combine it with the current sum by adding the two.

You can even write functions that provide new types of control flow.
function unless(test, then) { if (!test) then(); } function repeat(times, body) { for (var i = 0; i < times; i++) body(i); } repeat(3, function(n) { unless(n % 2, function() { console.log(n, "is even"); }); }); // → 0 is even // → 2 is even Higher-Order Functions :: Eloquent JavaScript
