Ruby is an interpreted scripting language made for quick and easy object-oriented programming.

Basic Syntax

Local variables in Ruby are not prefixed with any characters. Global variables are prefixed with "$", Instance variables with "@" and Class variables with "@@". Statements must be separated with a line break or a semicolon, but not both. 

var = "value" #local
$var = "value" #global
class Test
     @@var = "value" #class
     def initialize
          @var = "value" #object
     end
 
     def test( arg ); arg+1; end
end

You can put strings together (concatenate) using the + operator 

var = "string " + "string2"

In Ruby, values are type dependent, the string "1" and the integer 1 are not equal. 

if 1 == "1"
     print "Equal"
else
     print "Not Equal"
end #"Not Equal"
