Something to share with you (ladys and guys). My boss want me to compare data from two sources for oil busisness. As our routine, I write it in perl. But the output is wrong. So I think it must be wrong with logic or bug in perl. I convinced my boss to write the same program in Ruby(He really do not like to try new thing). The output is still wrong (same as perl output). So there is not perl bug, but my logic is wrong. Later, I found out what is wrong in my logic. And what I recognise my Ruby program is much shorter and beautier than my perl program. A further analysis, I see Ruby's beauty is its object oriented design. So I was sold to Ruby. Good Work ladys and guys!

- 1. new to this language
Hi, I am completely new to this language. I am trying to learn it on my own by reading the book available online. I wanted to type some code and test it while I was learning. I was wondering if someone could answer the following questions that would help me get started on writing some small amount of code testing it myself. 1) Just like in C++ you have a .h and a .cpp file , In this language how would you store your file. In other words if I open emacs and want to write a very simple small class in what format would I save this file ? 2) How do you compile your code? What is the syntax? 3) Do you need a main and a makefile ? I am sure you would need a main to test it . If yes how do you save the main? In what format? These questions may seem really stupid, but I have no idea about this language. I have a little knowledge of C and Java, but not ruby. Any help is appreciated, Thanks in advance, Vidhi. - 2. Thanks for your inputs on my "Need advice on recognizing patterns in strings..."
Hi All, I have been away from my emails so I am going thru your responses. Just wanted to say thanks for the help. Harry - 3. ruwiki question
I am considering extending ruwiki (if needed) to add some metadata to links in ruwiki. e.g. topic1 (specialize) --> topic2 (specialize) --> topic3 (related) --> topic4 Any suggestions where I should begin? Thanks.

Hey, that's great. May your enjoyment continue. Today I clipped one of my toenails and it sailed across the room and landed perfectly in a cup up on top of a bookcase. It made me happy just like you are happy. Sounds like lots of great things are happening everywhere. _why

Selon why the lucky stiff : ngoc, don't take it personally, _why is always like that ;) . However the comparison isn't that bad. When I first came across Ruby, it was as if everything went suddenly into place perfectly. I thought to myself: "of course! *that's* how it should be!". Since then learning Ruby has been more like discovering how my brains natively work rather than learning a separate language. It can make so much sense it's freaky! Could it be that matz is actually channeling us all at the same time? Or maybe *we* are channeling him all at the same time ;) ... -- Christophe Grandsire. http://www.**--****.com/ You need a straight mind to invent a twisted conlang.

Selon Stefan Schmiedl < XXXX@XXXXX.COM >: You'd think that as a conlanger I would have already read it ;) . But strangely enough I didn't know it existed. Thanks for the advice though, I'll surely try and find it (don't tell me "Amazon", I can't pay by Internet, but I have a bookstore in the neighbourhood that has to have it).
