Ruby regex for stripping comments and whitespace
Raw
comments clean up
# Remove comments, whitespace, newlines, and returns
# Use line.gsub! to modify the actual line instead of just returning the result
@input = line.gsub(/\t|\s|\n|\r|\/{2}.*$/, '')
# Then, once all of the crap is gone make sure to skip empty lines
