Here are some instructions on how to make a program in the Ruby programming language that would say "Hello World!".
Prerequisites
A text or code editor is required to write Ruby code. There are many options available online.
Warning: | Be careful when downloading programs from the internet; make sure to ask your parent or guardian first and download compressed files. If you just want to see how this works then use an online IDE. |
Scratch Code
If you were making this with Scratch, you would code it like this:
when gf clicked say [Hello World!]
Ruby Code
The Ruby code for this is shorter than the Scratch code shown above. The Ruby code is:
puts "Hello World!"
or
print "Hello World! \n"
print "Hello World!"
can also be used, but a new line will not be added after printing "Hello World!".
