DIFFERENCES BETWEEN RUBY VS RUBY ON RAILS

Ruby is also good for programming for general purposes, but it does not have scientific ecosystem and libraries for system programming. Ruby is an object-oriented programming language interpreter that was developed by the Japanese programmer Yukihiro “Matz” Matsumoto. The language combines a syntax inspired by Python and Perl with object-oriented programming functions similar to Smalltalk. The official implementation is distributed under a license for free software. http://axelena.com/technology/differences-between-ruby-vs-ruby-on-rails/
