I am new to code writting, have to learn Ruby (windows) so I am trying to do some experaments working with files and directories. This code, (I thinks) creates an array called file. I can do some tricks to test that, array.empty? and I get back false for each element. I want to be able to select each element on at a time But all I get is numbers. Dir.chdir("e:/sourcemp3") puts Dir.pwd Dir.foreach(".") do |file| puts file end The code above will list all files in the directory. I need only the first file with .mp3 extion. It would be better not to use the .foreach but what could I use? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
