With this eBook, you'll learn how to get Ruby, how to write Ruby statements, and how to use this language in creating your own programs. It will explain theories and lessons through detailed instructions and practical examples. In this book you will find the fundamental aspects of the Ruby programming language. While Ruby does not borrow many features from Python, reading the code for Python helped Matz develop Ruby. Ruby also borrows from Lisp and Smalltalk. Ruby borrows heavily from Perl and the class library is essentially an object-oriented reorganization of Perl's functionality.
It was developed to be an alternative to scripting languages such as Perl and Python.
Development began in February 1993 and the first alpha version of Ruby was released in December 1994. Ruby is an object-oriented scripting language developed by Yukihiro Matsumoto ("Matz").
