how to use ruby code after its written, is it standalone or need to be in a web application? -


confused little on ruby. know makes .rb files, make exe or com files or used as web application?

i know bit writing code, files after.

the question bit broad.

you have step , @ how source code in general ends being executed (i.e. used).

in case of programming languages (e.g. c/c++) it's compiled native form , can executed directly afterwards;

in case of other languages it's compiled intermediate form (e.g. java/c#) , executed vm (jvm/clr)

in case of yet other languages interpreted @ runtime (e.g. ruby/python).

so in specific case of ruby, have interpreter loads rb files , runs them. can in context of standalone apps or in th e context of web server, have interpreter making sense of ruby files. don't executable same way languages compiled machine code.
