Ruby was recommended to me by my comparative programming languages professor. I haven't picked it up, but there were memes that this professor was so good at programming he was secretly built by the university in C++ to teach students how to write better code.

It's worth learning Ruby to understand some of the tricks you can do in programming languages.

Did your prof also recommend others like Lisp?
