What am i doing wrong?
numbers = []
number = 0
# write your loop here
loop do
number =+ 1
number.push(numbers)
if numbers == 3
break
end
end
Bummer! NoMethodError: undefined method `push' for 0:Fixnum Did you mean? puts

You want to push
onto the numbers
array; pass in number
as the method argument. Your error is saying that number
doesn't have a push
method - that's because it isn't an array; numbers
is!
numbers.push(number)
Also, you want to do that first in the loop, before you increment number
otherwise your array will never have the value zero in it. The question wants add the current value of number to the numbers array - this includes the initial zero value. Next up; to increment, use +=
rather than =+
.
That all looks like:
loop do
numbers.push(number)
number += 1
break if number == 3
end
Let me know how you get on.
Steve.
