Subject: Re: Queston: array.push

Problem is you're calling gets way too much.

compare this working code to your own:

$stdout.sync = true

myarray = []

while (another = gets.chomp)
  break if another.empty?
  myarray.push(another)
  print another.inspect
end

print myarray.inspect

myarray.each do |mine|
puts mine
end
