Any seasoned ruby devs want to recommend the best way to learn Ruby... I've done codecademy but I don't feel it instilled the Knowledge I was hoping it would if it helps Ive done vb6 some c#,java (android) but I'm really struggling with Ruby it just doesn't seem to click with Mr if that makes sense.... Thank you for you time anyone that reads this

(I learned Ruby from the pick-ax book while on a ship for a week with no internet. This was in the days before Rails.)

Ruby is far simpler than java or C# - make sure you don't overcomplicate it.

Do you have some simple problems you can solve with it?

I can do some simple ruby on account of It being almost English but I'm not writing ruby code I'm writing vb code in ruby if that makes sense

With me...
