You don't have to learn every single way to achieve a task though. Just sticking to simple blocks will solve 95% of the issues for you. If you want to get into more detail, Ruby will grow with you. I've sincerely yet to explicitly use lambdas or Procs and I've been coding Ruby through Rails for a few years now.

Like I said, that's fine if you’re only writing code. It doesn't stand up so well if you need to read code also. The author of the code could use any feature the language provides.
