Subject: subtracting arrays

I suspect there is a cleaner way to do this with inject or collect.

a = [1,2,3]
b = [1,1,1]
c = []
i = 0
while i < 3 do
  c << a[i] - b[i]
  i += 1
end

p c

=> [0, 1, 2]

I tried a collect but can't figure out how to get variables from outside
the block to work inside the block. I was thinking something like
c = []
c.collect {|a,b| a - b}

but that is not it.
