The Ruby programming language has taken the software world
by storm, as scripting language, as development language,
and as the host of the influential Rails web development
framework. Programmers who come to Ruby are surprised by
their productivity and freedom -- and by how much fun they
have!
Becoming an accomplished user of Ruby takes a little practice.
One way to jump-start the learning process is to study with a
master. To this end, ooPSLA is
offering a tutorial called "An Introduction to Ruby" by
accomplished Rubyist and teacher Glenn Vanderburg.
In this podcast, Glenn joins Daniel Steinberg of DimSumThinking
to talk about Ruby, some of the advantages of making Ruby your
"go to" language, and some of the ways that Ruby will expand how
you think about programming and programming languages.
