Im just learning ruby and im stuck the guide im using says

"Your first program
Congratulations! Now that you have made it this far, you are ready to
start writing programs. Hello World Grab a text editor and type in the
following:

puts "Hello World"

Save the file as hello.rb and run it by typing
ruby hello.rb"

i've tried that more than once and it says the out is:

"irb(main):001:0> ruby hello.rb
NameError: undefined local variable or method `hello' for main:Object
       from (irb):1
irb(main):002:0> "

the guide never said what word processor should i use
i tried TextEdit.app but it fussed about the .rb
so i used Microsoft word and this is what it does...

Any tips?
