Ruby Ruby Foundations Loops Control Flow

retry if

I am watching along Jason's Ruby Foundations, control flow video.

I have a loop the following loop -

animals = %w(dog cat horse goat snake frog) count = 0

for animal in animals puts "The current animal is #{animal}" break if count == 10 count += 1 retry if animal == 'horse' end

When I try to run this I get a SyntaxError on the retry if line. I have compared with Jason's code and it appears to be the exact same. Could someone spot the problem?

Thanks
