New D.I.C Head Joined: 4 Dec, 2007 Posts: 1 My Contributions	I need to write a complete Ruby program to prompt for and read a sequence of non-zero integers, and keep on reading them until the user types 0. Then print out the positive numbers in increasing order and the negatives in increasing order. Use an array to hold the positives and another array to hold the negatives. Use loops to print out the two arrays. I am using text wrangler for this and am a beginner this is the code I have so far and am not sure at all if it is correct despite my research puts "What's your name?" name = gets.chomp count = 0 while count =+ 1 puts "Give an integer, 0 to quit" count = gets.chomp.to_i end I want it to continue prompting "Give an integer, 0 to quit" until the user types 0, then I want the program to list all of the non-zero integers the user typed

CODE nums = Array.new puts "Enter a name" name = gets puts "Enter numbers, enter 0 to stop" exitNow = false count = 0 while !exitNow num = gets if num.to_i == 0 exitNow = true else nums[count] = num end count = count + 1 end puts name + "Entered: " nums.each do \|n\| puts n.to_s end
