stop program with entering a key...

[hazal Ates]

i m a new in Ruby . sorry may be its a silly question.
my small game " finding a randon number" in codes i want to put
"pls press -1 to stop game"
or
end of first game i want to ask
"do you cont. or stop ( y / n ) enter , pls"

but i dont know that how (-1) or y/n work to stop or cont.

i want to like this code :
if keyenter=(-1) goto last line and stop
if keyenter = y goto beginning of game
if keyenter = n goto end of prog. it says puts "thank you , game over"
like this...

The following code doesn't do exactly what you need, but it should be
enough to get you started in the right direction.

def prompt
STDOUT.write ">> "
gets
end

def game_over
puts "thank you.\ngame over!"
exit
end

trap ("INT") { puts; game_over }

puts "welcome to my game. please press 'q' to quit."

while (code =3D prompt)
case code.strip
when "y"
puts "start game"
when "q"
game_over
else
puts "sorry, i don't understand."
end
end

end
end

thank you MJ

my desire generaaly not for func. of this but

after press. "y" for example ( at the last line ) prog execution must
GOTO beginning of program .

may be you now in pascal its easy with GOTO

Just define a function like "play_game" and do a loop that gets the input in
order to play the game or not and calls that function.

I don't even know how to use goto's.

Hello,

I don't even know how to use goto's.

Concerning GOTO's, there is a little comic I really like:

thank you TM and others ;

let me give an example what i want in Pascal code :

writeln('continue ? // finish game =====> y / n ');
writeln;
readln(k);
if (k='E') or (k='e')
then
goto (begining of prog.);

can you give an example to run same code in ruby ?

change the line like ; if (k='Y') or (k='y')

while 1 == 1 do
