Hello Foo STDIN and strip

• STDIN
• gets
• strip

The solution is to remove the newline from the end of the string. We can do this using the strip method:

print "Type in your name: "
person = STDIN.gets.strip

puts "Hello #{person}, how are you?"

Now if we run the program and identify as Bar, the output will look the way we wanted:

Hello Bar, how are you?
