From: Lovell Mcilwain Date: 2006-10-18T11:46:51+09:00 Subject: Re: Newbie: Ruby and Writing Variables In Strings Converting my variables to string got my program to the point where its asking for my input. Once I put it in, it bails on me with a comparison error. 99 bottles of beer on the wall, 99 bottles of beer. Take one down pass it around 98 99bottles.rb:15:in `>': comparison of String with 99 failed (ArgumentError) from 99bottles.rb:15 I still believe this has something to do with my starting point problem and not knowing how to specify it correctly. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
