`gets` returns string with separator (new line by default):
http://www.ruby-doc.org/core-1.9.3/Kernel.html#method-i-gets

So you can either strip the result (but it will remove any
leading/trailing whitespaces):

  name =3D gets.strip

or simply leave everything but the last char

  name =3D gets[0...-1]
