Subject: Re: Ruby/Rails as a starter language?

I think starting with Ruby is a great way to start learning how to
program, but if you are serious about programming you should definitly
look into other languages once you have a decent grasp of Ruby. If
you're gonna program for real you need to have an open mind about
languages, how they function, the pros and cons of each one, and so on.
And although pointers can be difficult to begin with, grasping the
concept is essential.
