Description

Ruby is the interpreted scripting language for quick and easy object-oriented programming. It has many features to process text files and to do system management tasks (as in Perl). It is simple, straight-forward, and extensible.

Features of Ruby are shown below.

Simple Syntax
*Normal* Object-Oriented features(ex. class, method calls)
*Advanced* Object-Oriented features(ex. Mix-in, Singleton-method)
Operator Overloading
Exception Handling
Iterators and Closures
Garbage Collection
Dynamic Loading of Object files(on some architecture)
Highly Portable(works on many UNIX machines, and on DOS, Windows, Mac, BeOS etc.)
