              @ray: if you have never coded, you will have the attraction of the newness!
              That can be a true motivation! ๐Ÿ˜Ž
              But if you want an advise : begin with very small project!
              As all new language you must learn syntax, semantic, then algorythm, then tricks, ...
              so many time for integrate all this ๐Ÿ˜‰
              Have cool discovery! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

              Ps for the french language you can use some coll progs like this one or this other ๐Ÿ˜‰
              That is also programing โ˜€

                      It cant hurt to ask, but in the mean time theres loads of stuff to help you learn ruby on the internet:

                      Google Search

                      favicon

                      (www.google.com)

                        I don't.

                        You're just developing an interest in making ruby's. That interest could last 2 days or it could last for years. If that interest is only going to last for a few weeks and you then move on to something else then any time that whaat has given to you will have been wasted.

                        You've made a good start to learning ruby's because you're part of this forum and there will obviously be help here if you need it. But if you're asking for help then I think it should be limited at this stage to just asking openly on the forum for help, rather than making personal requests directly to people. If whaat, or anyone else, wants to help you then they can easily contact you to help you. I just feel it's a bit rude to ask publically on the forum for him to help you.

                              I wouldn't consider myself an expert. I am basically self-taught and with that comes lots of bad programming habits. I learned everything I know about Ruby scripting in the last 18 months from these sources:

                              1. http://download.sketchup.com/OnlineDoc/gsu6_ruby/Docs/index.html (SketchUp Ruby API Developer's Guide)
                              2. http://www.ruby-doc.org/docs/ProgrammingRuby/ (The Pragamatic Programmers Guide)
                              3. Opening up other plugins with a text editor and trying to understand the code.
                              4. Helpful people on SCF

                              You should probably start by reading the fist few parts of 2) You might not understand everything at first, but when you start looking at 1) and 3), things will start to make more sense.

                              You can't learn this sutff overnight. Start off with something very simple. There are lots of helpful people on the forums so best of luck!

                                  hi, I'm new to Ruby too. Just thought of sharing a book that i bought which turned to be a great self learning guide for someone that knows nothing about Ruby (it also happened to be the only book i could find about Ruby in my part of the world ๐ŸŽ‰ )

                                    Heh, I've been wondering how to make ruby scripts aswell. Apparently if functions are part of ruby, so I have a start ๐Ÿ˜†

                                    Pilou, moi aussi je sais comment de parler le franรงais! ๐Ÿ˜‰ C'est pas une langue trรจs dificile ร  apprendre, mais il y a trop de verbes, et c'est difficile de savoir si quelque chose est masculin ou feminin. ๐Ÿ˜‰ En anglais, nous avons pas de masculin ou feminin pour les objets non-vivants ๐Ÿ˜†

                                    Aussi, qu'est ce que ton signature veut dire? "Is beautiful that please without concept!" en franรงais veut dire "Est belle que s'il-vous-plait sans concept" Je ne le comprend pas... ๐Ÿ˜•

                                      Are you actually interested BTM? There's been quite a few of us Ruby newbs hanging out here lately, and I think we've mostly shown that the learning goes pretty fast once you get into it.

                                      I'm currently putting together a tutorial for the SCF tutorials on how to start learning Ruby. But you really don't need to wait for anything like that. Start teaching yourself Ruby using Chris Pine's ruby tutorial. Its a great place to get started with Ruby. Then once you get the hang of the basic syntax, its time to dig into the SketchUp specific stuff.

                                      Chris

                                      Lately you've been tan, suspicious for the winter.

                                            I guess this thread will answer to most of your questions about Ruby.
