where to learn ruby?
« on: January 18, 2010, 05:13:17 PM »

  • Hey I've been wanting to learn ruby for a while now, dunno what to do or where to go to do it lolz. Was just wondering if someone could give me a little nudge in the right direction cus googleing it just comes up with pages for people that know, even if I add "for dummies" to the end lol! Never scripted before, never editted or changed scripts, so I could use a realy realy basic and simple guide if possible.
    Preferable content woud be a free HTML page or an E-book, but I'm not OVERLY bothered about that so yh, thanks :)

    Thankyou Very much from DJ Unlogical

  • I agree. Though, I think the "Help -> Content" (F1) has an explanation on it... it's just not the simplest thing to read if your not Ruby Syntax savvy.

  • If this is just Ruby, then that link should be good. If this is for RGSS/RGSS2, wrong section. Either way, learning Ruby would be good. It's more practical, and Blizzard, a well known scripter, did not know RGSS but, instead, Ruby first and picked up RGSS fast enough. It might not have been Blizzard, but there was someone like that. :P

  • If you want the in-depth guide actually made by the creators of RUBY, then go here

    http://www.ruby-doc.org/docs/ProgrammingRuby/

    If you want to buy it (the online version is free), the book is a great table-side resource. (I've got a copy on my shelf)
