READ MORE Python and Ruby are a new generation, high-level, server-side scripting languages focusing on simpler, crispier and high-performance codes. These scripts avoid verbose code, strict hierarchy, and syntax correctness for object-oriented logic under the hood. These are widely used for developing web apps and prototypes, thanks to their standard libraries, persistence support and feature-packed frameworks—Python’s Django framework, and Ruby’s Ruby on Rails. Both Python and Ruby have interpreted scripting languages unlike Java, C++ and other compiled languages. Although, compiled languages tend to run comparatively faster. Ruby on Rails is somewhat more popular as a web development tool than Django-Python. Python is favored more in the academic and scientific parlance.
