A libffi wrapper for Ruby.

Description

Fiddle is an extension to translate a foreign function interface (FFI) with ruby.

It wraps libffi, a popular C library which provides a portable interface that allows code written in one language to clal code written in another language.

Example

Here we will use Fiddle::Function to wrap floor(3) from libm
