I'm sure alot of people already know about this, but I'm also sure there's alot of people who don't

Ruby is perhaps the most functional programming language as far as a "beginner" programming language. And in fact, it's NOT a beginner's programming language, it's just so powerful and simple! A pity I can't program, I'm just not motivated enough.
