The Ruby Programming Language

• Impress Presentation Slides (viewable with OpenOffice 1.1)
• HTML Slides
• Sample scripts
  • binary.rb - Display stdin (or a file given on the command line) as binary.
  • database.rb - A simple interactive command-line program for interacting with a (dummy) database. (Demonstrates introspection and method dispatch.)
  • canvas.rb - A simple line drawing program, taken directly from Thomas & Hunt : Programming Ruby (p. 159)
  • Object Persistance scripts
    • persist.rb - The class to be serialized.
    • persist-1.rb - Creating and storing an object to a file.
    • persist-2.rb - Retrieving the object from the file.
  • rup.rb - A crude ruptime knock-off (Note: You must define the POOL regular expression for your particular network).
