Ruby is a programming language, much like PHP, Python, or Perl. However, users of Ruby believe that this programming language has a more sophisticated and powerful syntax than other programming languages. The Ruby language seems to combine the best of all the other languages. For instance, it has Python’s ease of usability, the simplicity which Perl is famous for, and also has the conceptual elegance that Smalltalk is popular for. The Ruby language first originated in the early 1990s but has become extremely popular with programmers all over the world only in the last few years.
