Question

I want to rewrite the following code with the code below, but I am stuck.

def ask question
good_answer = false
while (not good_answer)
    puts question
    reply = gets.chomp.downcase

    if (reply == 'yes' or reply =='no')
        good_answer = true
        if reply == 'yes'
            answer = true
        else
            answer = false
        end
    else
        puts 'Please answer "yes" or "no"'
    end
end
answer
end

Replacement code:

def ask question
    puts question
    reply = gets.chomp
    if (reply == 'yes' or reply == 'no')
        puts reply.capitalize
    else
        puts 'Please enter "yes" or "no"'
        #jump the code to like 2 ( but how?)- use while reply != empty & comment the below lines
        puts question
        reply = gets.chomp
    end
end

I want to jump to the main part of program is there any goto, jump or can I call method inside that method?

Answer 1

def ask question  
puts question  
reply = gets.chomp.downcase  
if (reply == 'yes' or reply == 'no')  
    puts reply.capitalize  
else  
    puts 'Please enter "yes" or "no"'  
    ask question # this does the looping of loop
end
end  

Thanks, and sorry I didn’t copy it well from my clipboard last time.
