Ruby

Ruby is a dynamically typed language where variables start with $, strings can be interpolated with #{variable}, and everything is an object. Modules define reusable code and can be mixed into classes, providing a namespace. Variables hold references to objects and assigning with = copies the reference, so objects need to be cloned to prevent changes from affecting other references. Constants are convention rather than enforced, and modifying an existing constant issues a warning. Control structures include if/unless/elsif, case/when/then, and loops like while, for, and until.

Modules and Mixins


- modules define reusable pieces of code

- modules provides a namespace
- modules could be mixin to any class
that satisfy : Should quack and swim like a

Ruby variables hold references to objects


and the = operator copies the references.
In order to get a object that won't change
out from under you, you need to dup or
clone the object you're passed, thus giving
an object that nobody else has a reference
to.

Constants are little more than a


convention. If you try to modify a constant
that's already been assigned to, you'll get a
warning. More or less, Ruby sees them as
no different from any other variable, and
when you try to assign to any variable that
begins in a capital letter and already
exists, it prints a warning on standard
error.

Loops - while, for, until, break, redo and


retry
