Paradigm | Ruby is a dynamically-typed, object-oriented language that supports functional programming. | ActionScript is an object-oriented language that supports imperative and event-driven programming. |
Typing | Ruby is dynamically-typed, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime. | ActionScript is statically-typed, meaning that variable types are determined at compile-time. |
Performance | Ruby is slower than ActionScript in terms of performance. | ActionScript is faster than Ruby in terms of performance. |
Libraries and frameworks | Ruby has a large number of libraries and frameworks available, including Ruby on Rails. | ActionScript has a smaller number of libraries and frameworks available compared to Ruby. |
