Ruby Basics-Installing Ruby

I am currently trying to install Ruby and keep getting this message

Press RETURN to continue or any other key to abort
==> Installing the Command Line Tools (expect a GUI popup):
==> /usr/bin/sudo /usr/bin/xcode-select --install
Usage: xcode-select -print-path
   or: xcode-select -switch <xcode_folder_path>
   or: xcode-select -version
Arguments:
   -print-path                     Prints the path of the current Xcode folder
   -switch <xcode_folder_path>     Sets the path for the current Xcode folder
   -version                        Prints xcode-select version information
Failed during: /usr/bin/sudo /usr/bin/xcode-select --install

Any ideas what i need to do next? I can't seem to get it working?

Try installing xcode and its tools manually. Open your terminal and execute: 

xcode-select --install
