Ruby Verses Python

If you look at Ruby and Python from an Java/C++/C# developers view, the differences are really not that significant at all. The advantages/disadvantages you find when using either of these languages will be more or less the same.

If you directly put Ruby and Python side by side, however, you will find some huge differences in the way their designers see OOP and programming in general.

Maybe for the best wordpress just deleted this entire post. The only noteworthy other comment, was I have used joels software time predicting articles to draw up a timetable and it worked fine.

TkWinfo.rgb

TkWinfo.rgb returns the code for the colour word. 

require “tk”

#working example to show the use of TkWinfo.rgb

p1 = [ ' ' , ' ']

p1[0,0] = TkWinfo.rgb(Tk.root ,”black”)
p1[0,1] = TkWinfo.rgb(Tk.root ,”white”)
p1[0,2] = TkWinfo.rgb(Tk.root ,”red”)
p1[1,0] = TkWinfo.rgb(Tk.root ,”green”)
p1[1,1] =TkWinfo.rgb(Tk.root ,”blue”)
p1[1,2] = TkWinfo.rgb(Tk.root ,”gray”)
#p1[2,0] = TkWinfo.rgb(Tk.root , “#0a0a0a”)

puts p1[0,0]
puts p1[0,1]
puts p1[0,2]
puts p1[1,0]
puts p1[1,1]
puts p1[1,2]
