Well why do you ask then, I told you what I think is the better choice. If you don't think so try the installer and see what'll happen. If you are happy with it, you question is answered....

I am studying RUBY language to use it to build some applications. &nbsp;I am a total novice. &nbsp;I have been reading books. &nbsp;They all seem to have different instructions on how to install Ruby.<br />
<br />
My plan is to run Ruby on a HP Xw6000 pc running Windows XP pro. &nbsp;I’d also like to learn how to use Ruby Rails.<br />

1.) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What is the best way to install Ruby?<br />

2.) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What is the best way to install Ruby Rails?<br />

Thank you &nbsp;for your help.

Instaling Ruby

Ruby is an open-source dynamic object-oriented interpreted language that supports multiple programming frameworks including functional, object oriented and imperative. It also has a dynamic type system and automatic memory management. Ruby focuses on simplicity and productivity. Ruby's market share spiked due to Ruby on Rails, a model-view-controller (MVC) framework for building web applications.
