You wern't jokin' Your root definition should look something like this root = TkRoot.new('title'=>'Homework#4') or you can set the title after the definition like this root = TkRoot.new() root.title('Homework#4') Just about everything in RubyTk follows the same hash-like pattern. This should give you a better start.
