The question asks "write the Ruby code to check if the variable "a" is greater than variable "b".
My code looks like this:
"a" > "b" and it was returned incorrect.
I moved the variables and signs into every configuration. Then I did this:
a = 1
b = 2
"a" > "b"
Then I removed the quotation marks:
a = 1
b = 2
a > b
This is stupid.
a = 1
b = 2
a > b
