Subject: Re: add a new line after, w/txtfile thats comma delimited

I'm new to Ruby but I just read a book that had an example that is
similar to this.  I've changed the code to see if I can solve this
problem and it seems to do it.

#code:

lines = File.readlines("temp.txt")
values = lines.split(/,/)

output_file = File.open('output.txt', 'w')
values.each do |line|
output_file.puts line
end

result should be:
value1
value2
value3
value4
