Ruby is
an increasingly popular, fully object-oriented dynamic programming
language, hailed by many practitioners as the finest and most useful
language available today. When Ruby first burst onto the scene in the
Western world, the Pragmatic Programmers were there with the definitive
reference manual, Programming Ruby: The Pragmatic Programmer's Guide.
Now
in its Second Edition, author Dave Thomas has expanded the famous
Pickaxe book with over 200 pages of new content, covering all the new
and improved language features of Ruby 1.8 and standard library
modules. The Pickaxe contains four major sections: An acclaimed
tutorial on using Ruby. The definitive reference to the language.
Complete documentation on all built-in classes, modules, and methods
Complete descriptions of all 98 standard libraries.
If you
enjoyed the First Edition, you'll appreciate the new and expanded
content, including: enhanced coverage of installation, packaging,
documenting Ruby source code, threading and synchronization, and
enhancing Ruby's capabilities using C-language extensions. Programming
for the world-wide web is easy in Ruby, with new chapters on XML/RPC,
SOAP, distributed Ruby, templating systems and other web services.
There's even a new chapter on unit testing.
This is the
definitive reference manual for Ruby, including a description of all
the standard library modules, a complete reference to all built-in
classes and modules (including more than 250 significant changes since
the First Edition). Coverage of other features has grown tremendously,
including details on how to harness the sophisticated capabilities of
irb, so you can dynamically examine and experiment with your running
code.
