oh ok basicly the issue is that i just didnt  understand what the gets 
method was doing, it was creating another string? Wow i thought it just 
GOT another string i didnt know it created one. Thats really confusing. 
Puts and Gets have been really confusing methods for me so far.

also why does puts #{info} always print exit even if a user doesnt type 
that in, that doesnt make sense to me at all.
