But all the books I look for already assume you have a good deal of knowledge in programming. Does anyone know where I can get a good basic start that will give me lots of examples? Also if it is possible can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong? This is my first program so please do not make too much fun of me. Thanks yall. -Mehektet- This is my program... # Program will ask for a persons personal information and then display # the results on the screen. Finally it will ask a person to give their # favourite number and then add it to their age and suggest a new # favourite number. puts 'What is your first name?' Fname = gets.chomp puts 'What is your middle name?' Mname = gets.chomp puts 'What is your last name?' Lname = gets.chomp puts '' puts 'What is your age?' Age = gets.chomp puts '' puts 'What is your favourite number?' Fnum = gets.chomp puts ' ' puts 'This is your information...' puts 'You are ' +Fname+ ' ' +Mname+ ' ' +Lname+ '.' puts 'Your age is ' +Age+ '.' puts 'And your favourite number is ' +Fnum+ '.' C = Fnum.to_i A = Age.to_i NFnum = C + A puts 'Maybe, your favourite number should be ' +NFnum+ '.' -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
