Ruby is more beginner friendly, reads closer than C/C++ to a natural language, is more relevant to web development due to the Rails framework. It also has more concise code than C/C++ but is slower than such compiled languages. For a comparison with Python, see the link posted by Sahil Bhakat .

C/C++ are much much faster than python but it gets much complicated to make or debug a big program since python is a scripting language.

Sahil Bhakat but why do we use RUBY instead of that languages. And also I think python is more secure that c and c++.

Sahil Bhakat Not sure but I have read an article which says c is the least secure language

Sorry Ashutosh Jha i am not a professional programmer and I don't have that much idea about ruby but as you can see in the link that it is used for web development and as far as i know c doesn't count for web development and i tried to find your answer about security in google but couldn't find but i know some other programmers who can know the answer I'll let you know later.
