viswesh,

The place where your having the error is
if fine.String =3D=3D "good"

fine is already a string, thats what gets returns so you don't need to
convert it.

String is a class not a method, so object.String will not work.  If you wan=
t
to get a string from an object use the to_s method
eg object.to_s

but you could do this a bit differently

puts "What is your name?"
puts "Hello #{gets.chomp} how are you?"
fine =3D gets.chomp
fine =3D=3D "good" ? puts( "Good buddy")  : puts( "Oh I'm Sorry" )

This would do the same thing that your looking to do with the code above,
but would be more convienient if you wrapped it in a method definition and
then called it.

def check_it_out
  puts "What is your name?"
  puts "Hello #{gets.chomp} how are you?"
  fine =3D gets.chomp
  fine =3D=3D "good" ? puts( "Good buddy")  : puts( "Oh I'm Sorry" )
end

call with

check_it_out
