All I know about regular expressions is that they are extremely handy and are very useful in things ranging from searching google, to scanning/generating reports, and to programming.

All I know about Ruby is that it is an increasingly popular programming language (somewhat  similar to Python) used to construct internet railroads that inherits OO concepts from Smalltalk/Obj-C (rather than how Python borrows its OO model from Simula/C++).

well i can't write you lecture about regular expressions, ask more specific question or just google for general thing

also regular expressions has differences in different languages (of course core stays same) so you may want to look for ruby regular expresions
