Ruby looks a lot like Python. The Python syntax, at least to me, looks cleaner. I do like the help file that comes with Ruby.
May 'the Google' be with you!

To answer Bumsfeld, a lot of the Ruby language is based upon Perl.

Yes, I love Ruby, because it's very easy to understand. The day I started learning it I felt that I could easily be programming fluently in it very soon, and I think that this is very rare in a language.
