Hi Ravi,

Welcome!

One problem I experience when learning new languages is that while it's 
easy to plough through a book and feel pretty smart at the end.. when 
you come to writing code, you start to realize you need to read all that 
stuff again a few times until it sinks in.

With that in mind, I'd recommend Satish Talim's bumper collection of 
Ruby tutorials that cover similar ground to Programming Ruby but, 
naturally, approach things from a slightly different direction. Seeing 
it all over again is more likely to get the knowledge to stick :) See

Cheers,
Peter Cooper
