Gherkin Wiki issue: "matched to a Ruby code block called Step Definitions"

[dandv]

I'm new to Cucumber, so pardon me if this is a stupid question.

At https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber/wiki/Gherkin#gherkin-syntax, I see

When you run the feature the trailing portion (after the keyword) of each step is matched to a Ruby code block called Step Definitions.

I'm trying to understand this better. This is my first exposure to Gherkin, from the link at https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber-js#features.

1. Must the code block be Ruby? I arrived here from the JS port.
2. Where is that code located?
3. Should "Step Definitions" be "Step Definition" in that quote?

Hi Dan,

Sorry this is all so confusing, and thanks indeed for feeding back to us. Try this link instead: https://cucumber.io/docs/reference#step-definitions

We've been gradually trying to migrate the chaotic wiki docs over to the website, but at the moment things are between two places.

Also, there are no stupid questions!
