Hi everyone,
I'm a newbie to Ruby. I've just started learning Ruby for a week, but I
love it so much. I wonder is there any website to look up standard
library like C++?
And does Ruby have some standard container like C++ ( vector, list, map,
stack, deque... ). I come from a C++ background, so the way I think in
programming is pretty much from C++. I can see there's a big differences
in the way Ruby does work comparing with C++. So what is a good way to
start thinking in Ruby way? Can anyone share me some experiences? Great
thanks in advance !

If you are considering a book, Programming Ruby, known as the pickaxe,
has a complete reference for core classes and the standard library.

Array can of course also be used as list, i.e. maintaining a custom order and with O(1) element access.
And then there is Set for efficient set operations.
Kind regards

Also, Dave Thomas, the author of the pickaxe book, has a screencast on ruby metaprogramming. While metaprogramming itself is an advanced topic, I watched this early on, and felt like it gave me a good jump on understanding the ruby object model.

I found it to be very helpful (in fact I'm taking it a second time at the
end of this month!). You'll find that the students and mentors have a broad
range of backgrounds; from someone like myself who is new to programming as
well as Ruby, to individuals like yourself who have a background in another
language.
One thing I especially appreciated is that the mentors will challenge you to
think in other ways.
Hope to see you there!
