If you put "p input" just after you get the input you will see "10\n". That
is the newline on the end. Remove it with

input = gets.chomp # removes the "\n"

It's a common beginners problem with Ruby. A string from input will include
the new line on the end and it either needs to be removed (with chomp) or
handled in some way.
