Subject: Newbie Class variable question

Hello!

Forgive my newbie-ness.

Using ruby 1.8, while trying to create a similar example of
one I found to the book called "The Ruby Way":

class Foo

	@@bar = 10

end 

Foo.bar = 4

I get:

elathan@velka:~/src/ruby> ruby test.rb 
test.rb:7: undefined method `bar=' for Foo:Class (NoMethodError)

Is this behaviour normal?

Enjoy,
