Subject: Ruby Code Parsing

I have a Perl friend asking me questions about how ruby parses its code.
Things like, how does it know where a statement ends and where can you
and can't you put new lines -- basically trying to understand how Ruby
differs from Perl and from Python in regard to parsing Ruby code.

I have a good /practical/ understanding of how it works, but have
difficulty delineating in one e-mail all the rules of how it works. Is
there a particular document (please give specific section) on the
Internet that I could link him to that explains all the rules?
