Giving Ruby a try
I've recently felt the urge to learn and master one (or several) of the new-hippie programming languages. I've done some Google searches and now I have to decide between the all-hailed Perl, the syntax crazed Python and the user-friendly Ruby.
Seeing as I'm a syntax whore myself, I started up with Python learning simple loop functions and variable definitions. I quickly felt ill with all the UGLY syntaxing. So I killed that project.
I read up on Perl and decided to look at that last.
I moved onto Ruby, and that's where I'm at right now.
I've downloaded the libraries from the website (linky) and I'll post some code up when I get a chance. I might define how to make and call custom functions or something like that.
If you've got an opinion on the Perl vs. Python vs. Ruby debate, please let me know what you think so I can refine my fiddling.
Welcome to my little corner of the Internet. My name is Max Mackie and I need some room to let my mind roam free, you just get to sit around and read (and of leave the odd comment if you feel the need to).
