[Tutor] Help deciding between python and ruby

[Robert Berman]

I think you will get at the least a slight bias toward Python. However,
I think you should do your own research and reach your own conclusions.
Simply to get you started I put the following into Google: 'Python or
Ruby: Which to learn' and got more than 1M hits.

Best of luck.
