1. A relational language designed by Jones and M. Sheeran in
1986 for describing and designing circuits (a {hardware
description language}). Ruby programs denote {binary
relations} and programs are built-up inductively from
primitive relations using a pre-defined set of {relational
operators}. Ruby programs also have a geometric
interpretation as networks of primitive relations connected by
wires, which is important when layout is considered in circuit
design.

Ruby has been continually developed since 1986, and has been
used to design many different kinds of circuits, including
systolic arrays, butterfly networks and arithmetic
circuits.

2. One of five pedagogical languages based on {Markov
algorithms}, used in Higman's report (below). The other
languages are Brilliant, Diamond, Nonpareil, and
Pearl.

3. A fully object oriented interpreted {scripting
language} by Yukihiro Matsumoto .

Similar in scope to Perl and Python, Ruby has high-level
data types, automatic memory management, dynamic typing,
a module system, exceptions, and a rich standard library.
Other features are CLU-style iterators for {loop
abstraction}, singleton classes/methods and {lexical
closures}.

In Ruby, everything is an object, including the basic data
types. For example, the number 1 is an instance of class
Fixnum.

Current version (stable): 1.6.7, as of 2002-03-01.

(gcide)
hummingbird \hummingbird\, humming bird \humming bird\n.
(Zool.),
any bird of the family Trochilid[ae], of which over one
hundred genera are known, including about four hundred
species. They are found only in America and are most abundant
in the tropics. They are mostly of very small size with long
slender bills adapted to sucking nectar from flowers, and are
noted for the very brilliant iridescent colors of their
plumage and their peculiar habit of hovering about flowers
while vibrating their wings very rapidly with a humming
noise; the wings are specialized for hovering flight, but
they can also dart forward and fly quite rapidly. They feed
both upon the nectar of flowers and upon small insects. The
common humming bird or ruby-throat of the Eastern United
States is Trochilus colubris. Several other species are
found in the Western United States. See Calliope, and
Ruby-throat.
[1913 Webster]Rubythroat \Ru"by*throat`\, n. (Zool.)
Any one of numerous species of humming birds belonging to
Trochilus, Calypte, Stellula, and allies, in which the
male has on the throat a brilliant patch of red feathers
having metallic reflections; esp., the common humming bird of
the Eastern United States (Trochilus colubris).

Ruby



1. A relational language designed by Jones and M. Sheeran in
1986 for describing and designing circuits (a {hardware
description language}). Ruby programs denote {binary
relations} and programs are built-up inductively from
primitive relations using a pre-defined set of {relational
operators}. Ruby programs also have a geometric
interpretation as networks of primitive relations connected by
wires, which is important when layout is considered in circuit
design.

Ruby has been continually developed since 1986, and has been
used to design many different kinds of circuits, including
systolic arrays, butterfly networks and arithmetic
circuits.

2. One of five pedagogical languages based on {Markov
algorithms}, used in Higman's report (below). The other
languages are Brilliant, Diamond, Nonpareil, and
Pearl.

3. A fully object oriented interpreted {scripting
language} by Yukihiro Matsumoto .

Similar in scope to Perl and Python, Ruby has high-level
data types, automatic memory management, dynamic typing,
a module system, exceptions, and a rich standard library.
Other features are CLU-style iterators for {loop
abstraction}, singleton classes/methods and {lexical
closures}.

In Ruby, everything is an object, including the basic data
types. For example, the number 1 is an instance of class
Fixnum.

Current version (stable): 1.6.7, as of 2002-03-01.
