I’ve wanted to learn Ruby for some time and even started to learn a little bit. I then got distracted and for some reason went with Python. I have now however decided that even though my current project is in Python, I will also be learning Ruby and Ruby on Rails.
If somebody were to ask me what version of Python to start with I’d suggest 2.6 because 3 breaks compatibility with all the tutorials they would google. Knowing so little about Ruby, what version should I install on my computer? Is there a major difference between any two versions etc etc?
Rails recommends version 1.8.7, so if you’re going to be learning rails, I’d stick with that. This book is pretty good.
