Subject: prob with tutorial example

Hey there,
just got the pickaxe book, and i am working thru the beginning.

one example prog is this

#!/usr/bin/ruby

def fib_up_to(max)
  i1, i2 = 1, 1
  while i1 <= max
    yeild i1
    i1, i2 = i2, i1 + i2
  end
end

fib_up_to(1000) {|f| print f, " "}

when i try to execute it from a terminal, i get this:

./testl.rb:6:in `fib_up_to': undefined method `yeild' for main:Object
(NoMethodError)
        from ./test.rb:11

am i doing something wrong? i have this installed in debian sarge.

thanks
