Ruby basics before ruby foundations?

I am currently on the rails dev course. treehouse just added a new course "Ruby Basics". Should I take "Ruby Basics" before "Ruby foundations"?

Yes I would do that first if for more beginner tutorial. new Ruby Basics course looks very much introductory and Ruby Foundation goes deeper on details

I just completed Ruby Basics, and it was indeed very basic. If you've done any programming tutorials before or are at least familiar with basic concepts (strings, variables, arithmetic, etc.) I'd recommend starting with Ruby Foundations instead.
