I'd like to thank the nice people who came over and saw last Thursday's MSDN Session!

The slides used for the presentation is provided below, via Scribd, downloadable in PPT format:

An Introduction to IronRuby and the Dynamic Language

An Introduction to IronRuby and the Dynamic Language LaTtEX Presentation given during the MSDN Session of the same title, last May 27, 2009, at the Microsoft Philippines Offices. These slides discuss about the merits of learning a dynamic language, a brief history of Ruby, and its main language features

The Ruby sample code is provided here: RubySampleCode.zip

The sample code for Ruby integration with C# (taken from cruizer here) is here: IronRubyTest.zip

Do check out Andre Cruz's IronRuby presentation slides and demo code -- which was my source for several key points in my presentation. While Andre lamented that he had an audience of 10, I shared his ideas to my audience of 100, as my way of thanking him. Salamat bushing! :)

During the presentation, Philip Laureano asked a rather difficult question regarding the DLR's integration with C# 4.0's "dynamic" keyword. He came up with the answer himself: click here for the sample code on how C# 4.0's dynamic keyword demonstrate the capabilities of the DLR. You the man, Philip!

I'm cooking up a follow up session on ASP.NET MVC working with IronRuby, but don't hold your breath just yet; will keep you posted. Thanks again to everyone who was there!
