RubyCocoa is a Framework of OS X, which enables you to write Cocoa programs with Ruby, an object-oriented scripting language. It is also possible to use RubyCocoa to generate objects, whose function you may call from Objective-C.
Below are some of my understandings about Ruby and RubyCocoa.
1. RubyCocoa has basically no relation to Mr. Matsumoto, originator of Ruby.
2. Ruby is a set of libraries, which are made from C. RubyCocoa is a set of libraries (frameworks), which are (may be) made from Objective-C.
3. Both Ruby and Objective-C have a lot of influence from Smalltalk, so the way of method call looks similar.
4. Even in Japan, Python may be more popular than Ruby in real business (it may be because of Zope).
