πŸ† Python vs Ruby – Which One Wins the Speed Test?

πŸ”₯ Python or Ruby? I ran a performance experiment comparing both languages across:
βœ… Factorial calculations
βœ… Random password generation
βœ… Sorting 1M elements
πŸ’‘ Surprising results:
πŸš€ Sorting – Ruby was slightly faster (~0.6s vs Python’s ~0.7s)
⚑ Factorial & Passwords – Both were equally fast
πŸ“Œ What I loved?
βœ… Python – Unmatched for data science & AI πŸš€
βœ… Ruby – Beautiful, human-friendly syntax ✨
πŸ€” Which one do you prefer for your projects?
