Forum: Ruby prime numbers problem

Hello,

I found out that ruby 1.9 has a prime class.
So I tried this : list_primes.each { |prime| print prime, " "; break 
unless prime < 90 }

And I get this answer : 2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 31 37 41 43 47 53 59 
61 67 71 73 79 83 89 97

That looks no good because 97 is more then 90.

How can this be happen ?

Because the loop first print, and checks later.

Well, you're telling ruby to break the loop after having printed out the
number, so of course it'll print 97, then break the loop. You'll need to
reverse the order of the expressions inside the block to achieve what 
you
want.
