Could you please explain a bit more fully? Are you having trouble typing
the
‘@’ character?

sorry for the dlay,
yes it’s the @ character, I can put it here with no problem, but not in
the fxri program, because I’m trying to learn ruby and I think that
program si for practicing, my keyboard configuration is spanish latin
amirica,

If you let us know your operating system and keyboard layout, we may
be able to help.

Maybe there’s no entry in ri for ‘@’. Umm, no, that’s not the reason –
I
just typed ‘@’ for ri and got a lot of responses:

More than one method matched your request. You can refine
your search by asking for information on one of:

 Numeric#+@, Numeric#-@, Float#-@, Fixnum#-@, Bignum#-@

Maybe this is a time when you should consider dropping the time-saving,
super-efficient, artificially intelligent go-between “fxri”, and type
your
request into ri directly.

I figure it out, sorry it was very easy, a friend that came over told
me,
It’s a little emberessing, that I want to learn programming and
something so simple would crash me, it was Alt Gr + q

Don’t feel bad, it happens to all of us. In 1977 I got my first personal
computer, an Apple II. I wanted to write some cool stuff, but first I
had
to get into BASIC. The instructions said “Type ‘control-B’ to get into
BASIC”.

I must have typed “control-B” a thousand times.

irb(main):024:0> class Greeter
irb(main):025:1> def initialize(name = “World”)
irb(main):026:2> @name = name
irb(main):027:2> end
irb(main):028:1> def say_hi
irb(main):029:2> puts “Hi #{@name}!”
irb(main):030:2> end
irb(main):031:1> def say_bye
irb(main):032:2> puts “Bye #{@name}, come back soon.”
irb(main):033:2> end
irb(main):034:1> end

Ok that’s what i can’t do the “@name”, I can’t put the @ in,
Thanks for your response

I guess that that was before the autostart ROM.

Yep. It was a very early unit. No auto-anything. :slight_smile:

When I bought my Apple ][, the ][+ had already come out. But I got it
with the Apple Integer basic ROMS, and a Language card which let me
load AppleSoft basic or Pascal.

Back then there was a lot of software which only ran on Integer basic.

But it did have autostart.
