undefined local variable or method `code_words' for main:Ob
in [Ruby]
|
From: Abder-rahman Ali on 5 Jul 2010 15:31 I have the problem: undefined local variable or method `code_words' for main:Ob I'm trying to work on an example from the Why's poignant guide to Ruby, and don't know why I'm getting the preceding error. I just made some small changes in the example, and they are not related to the syntax, just the fill outs. The first .rb is "wordlist.erb": http://pastie.org/1031629 The second one, "idea.rb": http://pastie.org/1031631 Provided that the Ruby version I'm using is: ruby 1.8.6 So, any idea how I can workaround this issue? Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Please omit the last comma in wordlist.rb. But, I'm still having the problem. Appreciate your collaboration. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Local variables are not visible outside of the file they are created. You will to make code_words a global variable ($code_words) or a constant (CODE_WORDS). I think for an example like this one those are the two simplest ways. Jesus.
