The article presents information related to the computer scripting language, Ruby. Ruby is an interpreted scripting language for object-oriented programming. In an increasing number of job advertisements it is part of an either/or pair with Python. Like Python, Perl, PHP and TCL, Ruby is downloadable, and there are plenty of free online resources to help one learn it. The language was created in Japan by Yukihiro Matsumoto, and first released in 1995. Like Python, it provides a transition from procedural to object oriented programming for people without object oriented experience. Ruby is written entirely in programming language C, and writing C extensions in Ruby is easier than in Perl or Python. Ruby tries to reduce the slog of programming by pushing as much routine work as possible onto the machine.
