This Ruby style guide recommends best practices so that real-world Ruby programmers can write code that can be maintained by other real-world Ruby programmers. A style guide that reflects real-world usage gets used, and a style guide that holds to an ideal that has been rejected by the people it is supposed to help risks not getting used at all – no matter how good it is.
Chapters include:
- Source Code Layout
- Syntax
- Naming
- Comments
- Classes
- Exceptions
- Collections
- Strings
- Regular Expressions
- Percent Literals
- Metaprogramming
- Misc
- Tools
