natural to programmers.’

oriented language...

variables
type local instance class global constant
example name @name @@name $name NAME
you don’t have to specify variable type

Variables
a = 12
a.class # => Integer
a = “polsl”
a.class # => String
a = [‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’]
a.class # => Array

Arrays and Hashes
a = [ 'ant', 'bee', 'cat', 'dog', 'elk' ]
a[0] # => "ant"
a[3] # => "dog"
# this is the same:
a = %w{ ant bee cat dog elk }
a[0] # => "ant"
a[3] # => "dog"

Arrays and Hashes
my_hash = {
building: ‘school’,
fruit: ‘orange’
}
puts my_hash[:building] # => ‘school’

Symbols
LOW_PRIORITY = 0
HIGH_PRIORITY = 1
priority = HIGH_PRIORITY
vs
priority = :high
Symbols are simply constants that you don’t have to predeclare and that are guaranteed to be unique.

Control structures
if/else statements
case statements
while structure

Idioms
a, b = 1, 2
a += b
a # => 3
@a ||= 1 # @a = 1 if @a.nil?

def initialize(name)
@name = name
end

school = School.new(‘polsl’)
p school # =>#<School:0x007fa301836160 @name="polsl">
