Some of the text of this article seems non-NPOV. For example "clean syntax" and "obvious syntax" seem rather subjective. It doesn't bother me too much, but someone who is familar with the language (and not biased :-) ) might want to

NPOV the text. --[[User:Frecklefoot|Frecklefoot]] 19:08 16 May 2003 (UTC)

In fairness, and with considerable experience of using Ruby after unhappy experiences with many other programming languages, I can only concur with those representations. It is syntactically ''very'' clear and also extremely obvious to anyone with an understanding of OO concepts. [[User:Sjc|Sjc]] 13:12, 25 Nov 2004 (UTC)

I'm not sure that Ruby has ever been compiled yet. AFAIK JRuby is a port of the interpreter to java byte code, but does not compile the underlying ruby? --[[User:TomCounsell]]

Correct. But even as an interpreted language it is blindingly fast. [[User:Sjc|Sjc]] 13:12, 25 Nov 2004 (UTC)
