Ruby

Arrays let you represent lists of data in your programs. Once you have data in an array, you can sort it, remove duplicates, reverse its order, extract sections of the array, or search through arrays for specific data. You can also convert an array to a string, transform one array of data into another, and roll up an array into a single value. In this tutorial, you’ll explore some of the most practical methods Ruby provides for working with data stored in arrays.

Ruby provides several methods for converting values from one data type to another. In this tutorial, you’ll convert strings to numbers, objects to strings, strings to arrays, and convert between strings and symbols.

A string is a sequence of one or more characters that may consist of letters, numbers, or symbols. In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to work with strings in Ruby. You’ll create strings, display them on the screen, store them in variables, join multiple strings together, and learn how to handle special characters such as newlines, apostrophes, and double quotes.
