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.
