Ruby is a reflective, dynamic, object-oriented programming language. It combines syntax inspired by Perl with Smalltalk-like object-oriented features, and also shares some features with Python, Lisp, Dylan, and CLU. Ruby is a single-pass interpreted language. Its official implementation is free software written in C.

ruby-doc.org is an active repository for online documentation, tutorials, introductions and faqs. The site includes an extensive core API and standard API documentation application for function reference.
