Does the first language (in this case Ruby) need to be script language and/or a way to read itself?

- fouronnes3 6y agoI have no idea how this is implemented, but for regular quines (i.e. just a program that outputs its own source code) reading the source file is obviously not allowed. Plus there's isn't really a "first language" since the whole thing is a loop anyway.
