Question

I have rvm and ruby version 1.9.2 installed. I have Mac OS X 10.7. Why is puts not getting recognized?
puts (‘Hello Ruby’)
zsh: correct ‘puts’ to ‘tput’ [nyae]?

Thanks!

This looks like you want to enter the Ruby code directly at a shell prompt, which won’t work. Try ruby -e "puts('Hello Ruby')" and then start to learn how to write actual Ruby programs, e.g. with Chris Pine’s “Learn to Program”:
