Then I would like to print every line. Here is what I got: f = File.open("/Users/john/Desktop/text.txt") f_lines = f.split("\n") puts f_lines And here is the error Im getting: NoMethodError: private method ‘split’ called for # Dont know why this isnt working. Should be simple enough... Can someone help please? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
