About Ruby 3: The Big Picture

There are plenty of programming languages around–but for

many programmers, Ruby is special. Ruby originally came

from Japan to take over the world of web applications,

thanks to the popular Ruby on Rails framework. But Ruby

isn't just for the web: it's a great all-purpose language,

perfect to write scripts or process data.

This short training, Ruby 3: The Big Picture, shows you what

Ruby looks like, and what makes it unique. We'll take a 10

miles high overview of the language, examining its strong

and weak points. By looking at plenty of Ruby snippets, you'll

see why so many developers are in love with this weird and

friendly language.

After watching this course, you'll know enough Ruby to

answer one all-important question: is this language for me,

and why should I learn it?
