You can copy and paste ofcourse.

But if you're going to do anything serious with Ruby, you gotta start
creating a folder and have ruby files (*.rb).

Copy and paste the code into a ruby file and run it using the command line

% ruby car.rb

And ruby is a script language, which there is no compiling (build) needed.

The most common building is when you want to pack your code into a ruby gem,
and you'll most likely want to use rake (with a Rakefile).
