if answer = "e"
break
end
end

loop do
answer = get_answer()
if answer == "e"
break
end
end

7,812 PointsYour code worked, thank you. Even if I correct if answer = "e" to if answer == "e" it doesn't work. This may be because I am being too specific but I'm not sure how I did that. I get the error Errno::ENOENT: No such file or directory @ rb_sysopen - 1. How did I cause that?
