From: "J. Cooper" Date: 2008-02-14T03:38:50+09:00 Subject: Re: Ruby, Perl, Python Thank you for the replies. I should have mentioned that I do know some other, different languages (PHP, C, C#, and a bit of C++ and Java). I really like C# and love visual studio and just in general the polish that comes from a company throwing money at a language/framework. But there is a definite appeal in the dynamic style as well, and I'd like to be competent in both. (Not to mention, C# is essentially WIndows-only.) I like what was said about focus. In fact, the Pygame thing intrigues me, as I like to imagine myself writing games (I've even started a little RPG using Gosu in Ruby). I suppose my main interest is, are there things that can be done in Perl/Python that cannot be done in Ruby? Pygame may be an example, and an appealing one. It's things like that that intrigue me :) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
