Sophrinix / TryRuby

Try Ruby is a interactive shell that quickly and whimsically teaches the Ruby programming language. Originally _why's idea, it has been recreated from the ground up by Rubyists who have a passion for Ruby and for teaching their fellow (wo)man how to program.

Cannot declare an array on www.tryruby.org #133

The following code snippet is not being accepted:

a = [ 1, 'cat', 3.14159265 ]
SyntaxError:

:112: syntax error, unexpected tIDENTIFIER, expecting ']'
a = [ 1, 'cat', 3.14159265 ]

This has been documented within Programming Ruby (The Pragmatic Programmer's Guide), available online at http://www.ruby-doc.org/docs/ProgrammingRuby/.

Unfortunately no page number is available on the online document.

However, the code snippet is available under heading 'Arrays and Hashes'
