Ruby in the Computer Science Classroom
summary
Course uses Ruby as the tool for a data storage systems class and shows it handles real assignments: a prefix-expression calculator, HTML parsing and string tasks, a Britney Spears misspelling regex exercise, a Paradise Lost word-frequency pass over a large public-domain text, and simple cryptography ciphers. Ruby installs and runtimes don’t slow students, code lets them focus on algorithmic ideas, and the instructor asks the community to map where Ruby is the best choice and offer semester-sized mentoring projects.
