Question

I am new to Ruby and just can’t figure out how you take input for an array from a user and display it.If anyone could clear that I can add my logic to find the biggest number.

#!/usr/bin/ruby

puts "Enter the size of the array"
n = gets.chomp.to_i
puts "enter the array elements"
variable1=Array.new(n)

for i in (0..n)
  variable1[i]=gets.chomp.to_i
end

for i in (0..n)
  puts variable1
end  

Answer 1

How about capturing the array in one line?

#!/usr/bin/ruby

puts "Enter a list of numbers"

list = gets   # Input something like "1 2 3 4" or "3, 5, 6, 1"

max = list.split.map(&:to_i).max

puts "The largest number is: #{max}"
