Between Ruby and Python, which one is easier.

After inspection of the languages, I found out that Ruby and Python are much closer to human language thus making them easier to understand, but now which one is easier to learn. https://code.sololearn.com/cKawmsjEOJK7/?ref=app https://code.sololearn.com/cOXOMncqzg6r/?ref=app

Python is a katana. Ruby is a scythe. Still a matter of preference.

A matter of preference, I suppose. Personally, I chose Python over Ruby becuase of the former's multitude of data cracking libraries, which I will need. But to everyone his own :)

Both is easy but the most preffered is probably Python, I got a hard time finding people who code in Ruby so I moved to Python but got a hard time keeping up with Pro's so I moved to Rust, where all people are equal to me xD

You have to find out yourself which one "feels better" for you and which one satisfies your needs. If you're lucky, the answer to both questions is the same. Otherwise, you have to decide whether you want to be "more happy" or "more efficient" ;-) For me, the decision is clear. Python definitely feel more natural to me. Moreover, it comes with the ecosystem of numpy, scipy, pandas, and matplotlib, as wel as with specialized libraries, such as cclib.
