Hi,

In php, I can use the following code :

$str = <<<aa
hello,
how are you?
aa
;

But how can I do this in ruby ?

Thank you.

str = <<aa
hello,
how are you?
aa

or

# with interpolation, not shown in this example
str = %Q{aa
hello,
how are you?
}

or

# without interpolation
str = %q{aa
hello,
how are you?
}

Kind regards

Oops, I meant either

str = $(aa
hello
how are you?
)

or

str = ${aa
hello
how are you?
}
