Thanks very much for your help and in-depth explanation. This is the kind of answer I was looking for. That said, I have a few questions. Looking at your code immediately brought to mind the Zen of Python's "complex is better" than complicated - does that apply here? I've read that Ruby is supposed to read like English, or is that just for simpler programs? Finally, is it generally better practice to separate methods (find_empties and find_empties_sorted) or have just one?
