title: Ruby: colon before vs after
body: <p>When using Ruby, I keep getting mixed up with the <code>:</code>.</p>
  
  <p>Can someone please explain when I'm supposed to use it before the variable name, like <code>:name</code>, and when I'm supposed to use it after the variable like <code>name:</code>?</p>
  
  <p>An example would be sublime.</p>
