a string output is not showing ruby

Question

I'm tried these ruby code lines to run in sublimeText3 but I dont get any error even in view ->show console. Show result shows me that the coding is building, but I couldn't see any output there. The below code is what I'm trying.

guess.rb

words = ['foobar', 'baz', 'quux']
secret = words[rand(3)]

print "guess? "
while guess = STDIN.gets
  guess.chop!
  if guess == secret
    puts "You win!"
    break
  else
    puts "Sorry, you lose."
  end
  print "guess? "
end
puts "The word was ", secret, "."

Most text editors don't support interactive sessions, you have to run it from the terminal. — Stefan, Sep 28 '16 at 12:59

Since the Sublime Text console does not accept any input, you need to install package like SublimeREPL. You can launch it from Tools > SublimeREPL > Ruby.

What do you mean by “installed into the Sublime Text folder”? Package Control is the recommended way to install packages, just follow the steps described in [instructions](https://github.com/wuub/SublimeREPL#installation). – idleberg Sep 28 '16 at 13:27

Well, just install Pry then: `sudo gem install pry`. You should probably make your Ruby homework before diving deep into it. – idleberg Sep 28 '16 at 13:31
I get a new error after insatlling pry gem, `

You should probably start a new question for your new problem – idleberg Sep 28 '16 at 13:38

Take a look at this [issue](https://github.com/wuub/SublimeREPL/issues/336) on GitHub, installing these version will fix your NameError – idleberg Sep 28 '16 at 13:49
