How can I recognise input of the Enter key? The following code won’t work for me
puts 'press the enter key'
names = gets
if names == '\n'
puts 'yay'
end
This doesn’t work because ‘\n’ looks for the characters, \n instead of a new line. You want to use “\n” so it will actually read it as a newline instead of actual characters.
