 Dr. Dobb's | Banish the Blues | January 16, 2002
Ruby, the new object-oriented scripting language by Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto, evokes nostalgia for the adventurous programming of the past, and a call for similar swashbuckling in the future.
Ruby, O'Reilly informed me, is "an absolutely pure object-oriented scripting language that combines the strengths and capabilities of all the popular scripting languages, and is recognized for its elegance and power." I yawned and hit the delete key.
Since everything is an object in Ruby, Matsumoto avoids the annoying inconsistencies found in languages such as C++ and Perl that both must support a non-OO user base.

No one can memorize all the methods in the library, therefore, this book is the best companion when you program in Ruby." According to Matsumoto, Ruby has gained its reputation as an especially elegant language because it was designed from the beginning to support object-oriented programming.

 Yukihiro Matsumoto
The reason is because my system is not running an appropriate server; I know that, but if I was more of a novice, I might have given up Ruby in disgust by this point (on page 3), mistakenly blaming the language or library implementation.
Keep in mind that we are on page 3 of this book, in the introduction, under a heading entitled "Ruby's Elegance." This Nutshell book is clearly not intended as a beginner's tutorial, but does this principle make it acceptable that four of the five code samples in this section do not run as presented?
Instead, the book is riddled with bizarre and confusing terminology.

Yukihiro Matsumoto: I believe consistency and orthogonality are tools of design, not the primary goal in design.
