Subject: Re: displaying user inputed arrays

Im not really wanting it to take only the first 5 words i want it to say 
something if it is more then 5 words

print "Please type in 5 words with spaces inbetween them: "
answered = false
while not answered
  a = [gets.chomp.split]
  if a.length > 5
    puts "Type in FIVE words no more:"
  else
    answered = true
  end
end

but i know that the gets.chomp.split is wrong i have tried many ways 
including split and index and indexes and rindex and many other ways but 
i cant seem to get it to work. Im either using the wrong method or im 
not following the correct syntax of the code.

Maybe now you have an idea of what im trying to do. Im going to sleep 
for a little because im sick but im once i wake up im going to keep 
working on it to try to find a way but any help will be very much 
appreciated!

Thanks in advance
