About Ruby

Ruby was created in 1995 by Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto. It was designed to balance functional programming with imperative programming and to make programming more enjoyable and productive. Matsumoto aimed to create a language that prioritized human needs over machine efficiency, drawing inspiration from Perl, Smalltalk, Eiffel, Ada, and Lisp.

Strengths of Ruby include its readability, simplicity, and strong support for object-oriented programming. Weaknesses include slower execution speed compared to compiled languages and less efficient memory usage. Competitors of Ruby are Python, JavaScript, and PHP.
