Not sure what you mean by this. I'm glad this guy is chosing to learn Ruby
itself first before going into Rails. There are too many people who start
right into Rails and end up asking very simple questions because they can't
find the answers in the Rails doc. Rails takes advantage of a lot of the
dynamicism of Ruby, confusing a lot of new people (why can't I 1.seconds in
my Ruby script?).
