Hello all!
I am working on the ruby basics course. I was following along with the video using my own terminal. However, when I created a file like hello.rb with TextMate and tried to run in it my terminal i got:
Jordans-MacBook-Pro:~ JNA$ ruby hello.rb ruby: No such file or directory -- hello.rb (LoadError)
Why can it not see the file sitting on my desktop? Do I need to place the file in a specific directory/location?
