Subject: trouble with puts

Hello

       I have been trying to tranlate an application from java to ruby.
The java program has a main method for testing purposes. I am
implementing this
in ruby as a separate file. While doing this I noticed that puts doesn't
work from inside a method. Let me explain,

case 1:

#just this line in a file called something.rb

puts "something"

>ruby something.rb
>something

# The same line enclosed in a class
class Something

puts "something"

end

> ruby something.rb
> something

# The same line inside a method in a class doesn't work
class Something

def print_something

puts "something"

end
end

> ruby something.rb

# I don't see the expected Output


Could somebody throw some light on this.

Thanks
Venkat
