From: Ast Jay on 28 Jan 2010 16:54 Wow! Thank you all for such a fast response - I am shocked as I wasn't expecting replies so soon! Also apologies as I forgot to take out the 'first_letter' variable. The code was actually part of a bigger block to create a word based on exactly what I want - a first_letter, middle_letters, and an end_letter. I just tried to keep it simple when I posted here and forgot to clean that bit out. BIG thank you for all that helped - it looks easy when someone else gives you the code :-) I ended up using Aldric's code: ------------------- def create_word # code block here to construct a random word to my exact spec end list = [] 1000.times { list << create_word } list.uniq! puts list ------------------ Once again a huge thank you - the Ruby community really rocks! I also appreciate the kind words of encouragement - I really did feel stupid posting this as the answer just seemed so obvious *blush*. I just hope I am as good as you guys one day! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
