Hi,

Ghelani, Vidhi, 11/2/2005 14:01:

1) Just like in C++ you have a .h and a .cpp file , In this language

how

would you store your file. In other words if I open emacs and want to
write a very simple small class in what format would I save this file

?

.rb

2) How do you compile your code? What is the syntax?

Ruby is not compiled, it's interpreted. To run a file you can use 'ruby
foo.rb', when 'foo' is the name of your file.

3) Do you need a main and a makefile ? I am sure you would need a main
to test it . If yes how do you save the main? In what format?

You don't need a main either a makefile.
