Ruby is Just Like PHP, Except for a Few Things

	###Ruby is Just Like PHP, Except for a Few Things###

	After a few attempts and failures to learn Ruby, it finally clicked when I accepted that Ruby was just different than PHP. After that, learning was easy.

	If you're trying to learn Ruby as well, I'll do my best to compare Ruby to PHP (and sometimes javascript) which I found confusing, unexpected or tricky. When I can, I’ll try to explain why these "peculiarities" exist.

	- Syntax differences in Ruby
	- Classes, Objects and Scope
