How do I view a .rb (Ruby) file?

You have to install the ruby interpreter in your machine.
If you're running in Linux or MacOS you probably have it already, try typing:
ruby lab7.rb
In windows download it here:

So we just learned Ruby in class today, and we are just starting to write our own scripts. So I just wrote a very simple "Hello World" app in Ruby. I saved the file as lab7.rb . So now my question is how do I view the output of the file? Do I open it in a browser? Thanks

FrustratedWithFormsDesigner about 13 yearsYou probably have to run the file using the ruby interpreter. I think it would be something like
ruby lab7.rb
. The output would only show in a browser window if the script is going to be handled by a server process. Did you set up a server to serve Ruby pages? -
