Ruby is the interpreted scripting language for quick and
easy object-oriented programming. It has many features to
process text files and to do system management tasks (as in
Perl). It is simple, straight-forward, and extensible.

Features of Ruby are shown below.

+ Simple Syntax
+ *Normal* Object-Oriented features (ex. class, method calls)
+ *Advanced* Object-Oriented features (ex. Mix-in, Singleton-method)
+ Operator Overloading
+ Exception Handling
+ Iterators and Closures
+ Garbage Collection
+ Dynamic Loading of Object files (on some architecture)
+ Highly Portable (works on many UNIX machines, and on DOS, Windows,
Mac, etc.)

Ruby 2.7 introduces a number of new features and performance
improvements, most notably:

* Pattern Matching (Experimental)
* REPL improvement
* Compaction GC
* Separation of positional and keyword arguments

This package is Ruby 2.7 release minimum base package.
