Import rubygems.
RubyGems is a way to package Ruby libraries/applications for distribution, its a distribution manager, its a package manager. RubyGems brings to the world of Ruby a very valuable capability--the ability to manage concurrent versions of libraries and dependencies between those libraries. This last aspect of RubyGems is one of the most important to the end user, because its value is continuous as you use and program Ruby, but to understand its impact an explanation of how Ruby manages libraries is in order.
