ruby has one thing going for it that python doesn't: ruby's oo doesn't
seem 'tacked on' like it does in python.

a newbie trying to choose between ruby and python (with oo being their
main priority) has an easy choice: ruby, because it's oo from the
ground up...

as for a switch, i seriously doubt any 'core python expert' will even
touch ruby. and by placing that as a requirement he has cemented his
belief that he won't be convinced...

i found that one of the first things a python programmer will ask when
you mention ruby is "does it have tuples? does it have dictionaries?"
as if programming efficiently required them.
