Enumerable and array documentation are your friends:

http://www.ruby-doc.org/core-1.9.3/Array.html
http://ruby-doc.org/core-1.9.3/Enumerable.html

your_array = [[value1, value1_other1 ,value1_other2], [value2,
value2_other1,value2_other2], [value3, value3_other1,value3_other2]]

new_array = your_array.collect{|y| [y[0].to_s,y[1..3]].flatten}
