Ruby Programming Language

I work in
Its where I learn to program with Ruby
The question is: Why Ruby?
Meet Matz
He invented Ruby in 1995
He designed Ruby to be human-oriented
Ruby syntax is designed to be elegant
print "elephant" if "elephant".include? "ant" "elephant"
print "elephant" if "elephant".include? "ant" You can speak this in
proper english: “Print an elephant if elephant include ant”
print "elephant" if "elephant".include? "ant" You can speak this in
proper english: “Print elephant if elephant include ant”
print "elephant" if "elephant".include? "ant" You can speak this in
proper english: “Print elephant if elephant include ant”
This sentence still doesn’t make any sense, but it is
readable You can speak this in proper english: “Print elephant if elephant include ant” print "elephant" if "elephant".include? "ant"
print "elephant" if "elephant".include? "ant" “if” can be used to
modify expression
print "elephant" if "elephant".include? "ant" “if” can be used to
modify expression Method name can have question mark
Writing Ruby code is easy because it can be written
in plain english
Programmer can express themselves into their code
movie.awesome? bedroom.with_twin_beds? recipe.cooked_under 10.minutes Programmer can express themselves into their
code
humans.obliterate!
humans.obliterate! unless humans.nice?
There are more than one way to do anything in
Ruby
false 2.negative? 2 < 0
"hello" puts "hello" $stdout.puts "hello" p "hello"
one = 1 two = 2 three = 3 one,
two, three = [1, 2, 3]
one = 1 two = 2 three = 3 one,
two, three = [1, 2, 3] one, two, three = 1, 2, 3 You don’t even need
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5].map { |element| element if element.even?
}.compact [2,4]
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]. select { |element| element.even? }
[2,4]
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5].select(&:even?) [2,4]
Block arguments also makes Ruby popular
method do ... end method do |argument| ... end
%w(Google Yahoo MSN).map do |engine| "https://www.#{engine.downcase}.com" end ["https://www.google.com", "https://www.yahoo.com", "https://www.msn.com"]
Blocks allows us to attach closure to any method %w(Google
Yahoo MSN).map do |engine| "https://www.#{engine.downcase}.com" end this will be returned
Blocks allows us to attach closure to any method %w(Google
Yahoo MSN).map do |engine| "https://www.#{engine.downcase}.com" end this will be returned You don’t even need to write return
Almost forgot! %w(Google Yahoo MSN).map do |engine| "https://www.#{engine.downcase}.com" end Is
equal: ["Google", "Yahoo", "MSN"]
More Blocks
%w(jakarta bandung).map do |city| city.capitalize end
%w(jakarta bandung).map do |city| city.capitalize end ["Jakarta", "Bandung"]
%w(jakarta bandung).map(&:capitalize) ["Jakarta", "Bandung"]
[ ["jakarta", "province"], ["bandung", "city"] ].each do |name, type| puts
"#{name}_#{type}" end
"jakarta_province" "bandung_city" [ ["jakarta", "province"], ["bandung", "city"] ].each do |name,
type| puts "#{name}_#{type}" end
This kind of flexibility improves the joy of programming
You might notice that Ruby makes you write fewer codes
one = 1 two = 2 three = 3 one,
two, three = [1, 2, 3] one, two, three = 1, 2, 3 You don’t even need FLASHBACK!
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5].select(&:even?) [2,4] FLASHBACK!
Who doesn’t want to write less?
Have you tried programming with Ruby?
You might not noticed, but Mac users already have Ruby
(even though its outdated) Installation is pretty easy: https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/docum entation/installation/
It only takes 20 minutes to learn Ruby from this
page: https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/docu mentation/quickstart/
There is also tutorials in Bahasa Indonesia: https://www.idrails.com/
How about you try to learn together with fellow Rubyists?
Ruby community is known to be friendly (nice)
