The history of ruby

Ruby, by definition, is a general purpose, dynamic and object oriented programming language. The syntax of Ruby is inspired from Perl. Ruby originally belongs to Japan as it was developed there in the mid 1990s and it was initially developed by Yukihiro Matsumoto. Similar to Perl, Ruby also supports various programming paradigms like object oriented paradigm, procedural paradigm, functional paradigm, reflective paradigm and imperative paradigm.
To the ancients, ruby was known as "the king of gems". To some it was a representation of the sun. To others it represented integrity, devotion, happiness, healing, courage, romance, generosity, inspiration, and prosperity. According to legend, warriors implanted rubies under their skin to bring valor in battle. As a talisman, ruby would warn its owner against danger and disaster. Ground to a fine powder and placed on the tongue, it was believed by some ancient cultures to cure blood diseases, stop bleeding, ensure good health, bring peace, and treat indigestion.
Ruby developed as a supply point for gold prospectors. It was named after the red-colored stones found on the riverbank which were thought by prospectors to be rubies. A gold strike at Ruby Creek in 1907, and another at Long Creek in 1911, attracted hundreds of prospectors to the area. At one time, over 1,000 white miners lived in Ruby and the nearby creeks. Placerville, Poorman, Sulatna Crossing, Kokrines and Long Creek were some of the area's boom settlements. A post office was established in 1912, and Ruby incorporated as a city in 1913. Initially, the City was governed by miner's meetings, then later by Pioneer Igloo Number 5.
Nowadays, the ruby accessories are also popular on the market, there are various types and colors, you can choose your favorite one.
