Run your Ruby file by typing ruby
and then the name of the file you want to run in the Terminal.
If we want to run integer_math.rb
, we can write the command:
ruby integer_math.rb
To re-run this command, you can use the UP and DOWN arrow keys to look at the history of commands you've run in a Terminal.
If you divide the number of days in a regular year by the number of days in a week, what's the remainder?

It should ask the user to enter a number (using gets
) and output true
or false
if the entered number is odd.
Example (13
is the input):
"Enter an odd number:"
13
true
Example (12

First, ask for a person's age. Whatever they type, store it. Then, subtract the person's age from the current year and display the approximate year they were born in.

Key output (assuming the year is 2020): "Wow, you were born in 1940. You're old!"
Complete input and output example:
