I want to see the difference and how the code will be less. As someone who has written a fair bit of both PHP and Ruby for the Web over the years -- and very little of the Ruby actually using something like Rails -- I think I know something about the subject when I say this: 1. Code snippets will not give you a good idea of how much one or the other might save you any total code weight in the final version. Pick one small task that can be represented in a small snippet, and one language wins; pick another, and the other small task wins. In fact, for the smallest tasks, PHP will almost certainly win because of its literally *thousands* of core functions -- which, by the way, is *not* a sign of good language design. Last I checked, there were about 3100 core functions, which is *obscenely* complex for a procedural language, and pollutes the main namespace of the language to an insane degree. 2. Final code weight to accomplish a specific task is nowhere near the same thing as the amount of code you have to *write*, anyway. A lot of code that gets written for any given non-trivial project is ultimately deleted, usually to be replaced by other code. One of the benefits of Ruby is that it tends to lend itself to finding the "right" idiom for a given task sooner rather than later. PHP is not as good at that, and tends to require a heck of a lot of refactoring as it scales up past the size of a relatively trivial application. A lot of projects simply do not do that much refactoring, but the end result is a largely unmaintainable mess of an application, like WordPress. Reading the source of WordPress is a bit like using thumbtacks for contact lenses. 3. Ruby's object model lends itself to far better code organization than anything PHP offers. This means that, even in cases where Ruby might have the same amount of source code (or even more) to accomplish the same task, it's a lot easier to understand because of the way it can be divided up into discrete chunks that make sense. PHP's unreasonable facsimile of an object model and bolted-on half-baked namespace support, by contrast, tends to creak under its own weight when developing any nontrivial application. All told, PHP is easier to use for the most trivial, single-page dynamic templates, and harder to use to accomplish for anything more meaningful. If all you're going to do is maintain a simplistic Website that contains nothing but a little bit of simple logic in otherwise static pages, perhaps populating some content areas from a couple of extra files, and learn as little as possible, you might want to go with PHP. If you're going to do some real programming, though, I recommend Ruby; it'll facilitate development more on larger projects, it'll encourage better coding practices, and it'll be more fun. A lot of people complain about the superficial ugliness of Perl. PHP, however, inherits pretty much all of Perl's flaws as a language, and almost none of its benefits. Ruby inherits a substantial percentage of Perl's benefits, and not so many of its flaws -- even by the markedly uncharitable opinion of what constitutes a "flaw" that may Pythonistas would give you. I have recently stumbled across a brilliant characterization of PHP as training wheels without the bike. It's hilarious -- and having used Ruby for a while, it feels pretty true, too. I suppose your mileage may vary. Note that a lot of this has been a liberal mix of opinion and fact. I encourage you to *think* about what I said and do a little investigating to confirm what I've said for yourself, rather than just taking my word for it. If you want my opinion, though, it's easily summed up: I'm glad I don't have to write PHP these days. -- Chad Perrin [ original content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ]
