Ruby Inspect, a comprehensive review of the programming language Ruby
Ruby is created by Yukihiro Matsumoto and first publicly released on December 21, 1995 with version 0.95. The compilation model of Ruby is half-compiled and half-interpreted like Java. The Ruby program is first compiled into the bytecodes, which are later interpreted in the Ruby’s virtual machine (e.g. YARV) [1].
Unlike the other languages that optimize on the machine’s performance, Ruby is created as a productive tool for the human developers [2]. There are companies hiring the Ruby Engineers for web applications development using Ruby on rails, a web application framework written in Ruby.
