Depends on your background and your goals. I assume you have no programming at all. If this is the case,the best way is to find a small project you are interested in and try to solve it with Ruby or other languages, such Perl. After that you may know which one might fit you at this stage. Once you have enough programming background you should be able to learn another one pretty fast.
