How does Ruby's design help developers stay happy when writing code that manipulates collections?
Consider this code:

numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4]
squares = numbers.map { |n| n * n }

What feature of Ruby makes this code enjoyable and clear?

ARequiring explicit loops with index counters

BDisallowing inline code blocks for clarity

CForcing verbose error handling for every operation

DUsing blocks with simple syntax for concise collection processing

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Identify Ruby's block usage
Ruby uses blocks (the code inside { }) to process collections concisely and clearly.
Step 2: Understand how map works with blocks
map applies the block to each element, returning a new array with results, making code simple and readable.
Final Answer:
Using blocks with simple syntax for concise collection processing -> Option D
Quick Check:

Quick Trick: Look for blocks { } simplifying collection tasks [OK]
