-'''Ruby''' is an [[interpreted languages|interpreted language]], dynamically, reflective, semi-Functional and Object Orientated scripting language written in [[C]]. Ruby is said to be semi-Functional because it supports higher-order functions (aka lambdas) and closures (aka blocks). Ruby was created by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yukihiro_Matsumoto Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto] and was first released in 1995.

-Matz's goal was to combine powerful features from various other [[programming]] languages, and create a [[programming language]] maximized for developer happiness; as opposed to computational efficiency. Ruby's Object Model mirrors that of Smalltalk, the syntax shares some similarities with [[Bash]], [[Perl]], [[Python]], and the scoping rules for closures was taken from LISP.
