00:00 | Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Hello Ruby!. |
00:04 | In this tutorial, we will learn |
00:06 | * What is Ruby? |
00:08 | * Features |
00:09 | * RubyGems & Help on Ruby |
00:12 | Installation |
00:13 | Running Ruby code |
00:15 | Commenting |
00:16 | Difference between puts and print. |
00:19 | Here we are using:
|
00:27 | To follow this tutorial, you must be connected to internet. |
00:30 | You must have knowledge of using Terminal and Text editor in Linux. |
00:37 | Now I will explain what is Ruby. |
00:40 | Ruby is an object-oriented, interpreted scripting language. |
00:44 | It is dynamic, open source programming language. |
00:48 | It has an elegant syntax that is natural to read and easy to write. |
00:54 | Now, let us see some features of Ruby. |
00:57 | Ruby is highly portable. |
00:59 | Ruby program runs in any operating system. |
01:04 | Variables in Ruby have no datatype such as in Smalltalk, BASIC or Python. |
01:11 | It supports automatic memory management. |
01:14 | Ruby is free format language. |
01:17 | You can start writing your program from any line and column. |
01:21 | Ruby is used for developing Internet and Intra-net applications. |
01:26 | One of the most important features of Ruby is RubyGems. |
01:31 | RubyGems is a package manager for Ruby programming language. |
01:36 | It provides a standard format for distributing Ruby programs and libraries. |
01:42 | You can create and publish your own gems. |
01:46 | For more information on RubyGems, visit the following link. |
01:51 | To get more help on Ruby, you can visit the links shown. |
01:55 | You can install Ruby using the Ubuntu Software Centre. |
01:59 | For more information on Ubuntu Software Centre, please refer to the Ubuntu Linux Tutorials on this website. |
02:07 | Other methods for installing Ruby are as shown in this slide. |
02:12 | Ruby code can be executed in 3 ways- |
02:16 | * Command line |
02:17 | * Interactive Ruby |
02:19 | * As a file. |
02:20 | We will go through each method of execution. |
02:23 | First, let us see how to execute the Hello World code from command line. |
02:28 | Open a terminal by pressing the Ctrl, Alt and T keys simultaneously. |
02:33 | A terminal window appears on your screen. |
02:37 | Type the command: |
02:38 | ruby space hyphen e space within single quotes puts space then within double quotes Hello World and |
02:50 | press Enter. |
02:53 | We get the output as HelloWorld. |
02:56 | puts command is used to print the output on the terminal. |
03:00 | The hyphen 'e' flag allows only a single line of code to be executed. |
03:06 | Multiple hyphen 'e' flags can be used to execute multiple line commands. |
03:11 | Let's try this out. |
03:13 | Now, press the up-arrow key to get the previous command and |
03:18 | type: space hyphen e space within single quotes puts space 1+2 and |
03:30 | press Enter. |
03:32 | We get the output as Hello World and 3. |
03:36 | Let's switch back to our slide. |
03:38 | We will now learn about Interactive Ruby. |
03:42 | Interactive Ruby allows the execution of Ruby commands with immediate response. |
03:48 | You can run Ruby statements and examine the output and return values. |
03:53 | For older version of Ruby, install irb separately. |
03:57 | Now, let us execute our Ruby code through 'irb'. Go to the terminal. |
04:03 | Type "irb" and press Enter |
04:06 | to launch the Interactive Ruby. |
04:09 | Type: puts space within double quotes Hello World and press Enter. |
04:19 | We get the output as Hello World |
04:22 | and we get the return value as nil. |
04:25 | To exit from irb , type exit and press Enter. |
04:31 | You can also run Ruby program from a file. |
04:34 | You can use any text editor of your choice to write the code. |
04:39 | I am using gedit text editor. Let me switch to gedit text editor. |
04:45 | Now, type: puts space within double quotes Hello World . |
04:54 | Let's learn how to add multiple line or block comments. |
04:59 | Before the puts command, |
05:01 | type: equal to begin and press Enter. |
05:06 | equal to begin is used to start the comment. |
05:10 | Type the comments that you wish to add. |
05:13 | I will type: "My first Ruby program" |
05:20 | and press Enter. |
05:22 | Then type: "This code will print helloworld" and press Enter. |
05:30 | Now, type: equal to end. |
05:32 | equal to end is used to end the multiple line comments. |
05:37 | Comments are useful to understand the flow of program. |
05:41 | It is useful for documentation. |
05:45 | Now, let us save the file by clicking on the Save button. |
05:50 | It is a good practice to save the file frequently. |
05:53 | The Save As dialog-box appears on your screen. |
05:57 | Browse the location where you want to save the file. |
06:01 | On Desktop, I will create a folder named "rubyprogram". |
06:06 | We will save the file inside this folder. |
06:10 | In the Name text-box, type the name that you wish to add. |
06:14 | I will type "hello.rb". |
06:17 | dot rb extension is given to a Ruby file. |
06:21 | Then click on Save button to save the file. So, the file is saved now. |
06:28 | To execute the code, go to the terminal. |
06:32 | Let's clear the terminal first. |
06:35 | Make sure that you are in the directory where your Ruby file is present. |
06:39 | Remember that we are in the home directory. We need to go to the sub-directory rubyprogram. |
06:47 | To do so, type: cd space Desktop/rubyprogram and press Enter. |
07:00 | Let's execute the file. Type: ruby space hello dot rb and press Enter. |
07:10 | We get the output: "HelloWorld". |
07:13 | Now, let me demonstrate the difference between puts and print statement. |
07:18 | We will try this out using irb. |
07:22 | Before that, we need to go back to the home directory. To do so, type "cd" and press Enter. |
07:31 | Now, type irb and press Enter to launch the Interactive Ruby. |
07:39 | Type: puts space within double quotes Hello comma within double quotes World . |
07:50 | Here, comma is used to join the two puts commands together. |
07:55 | Now, press Enter. |
07:57 | We get the output Hello World, but on separate lines. |
08:03 | Now, let's try the same thing with print. |
08:06 | Press up-arrow key to get the previous command. |
08:09 | Replace puts with print and press Enter. |
08:14 | We get the output as Hello World but on the same line. |
08:19 | The keyword puts adds a newline to the end of the output. The keyword print does not. |
08:27 | The keyword print outputs only what we have provided. |
08:31 | This brings us to the end of this Spoken Tutorial. Let us switch back to our slides. |
08:37 | In this tutorial, we have learnt: |
08:39 | * About Ruby |
08:41 | * Installation |
08:42 | * Execution of Ruby code |
08:44 | * Adding multiple comments using =begin and =end |
08:50 | * Difference between puts and print. |
08:53 | As an assignment, |
08:55 | write a program to print your name and age. |
08:58 | We used multiple line comments in this tutorial. |
09:01 | Try to give single line comment. |
