Glitch in system?

There seems to be a glitch in the system. For the redacted problem I wrote the following code:

puts “Enter a line of text.” text = gets.chomp puts “Enter a word to redact from the line of text.” redacted_word = gets.chomp words = text.split(“ “) words.each do |word| if word == redacted_word print “REDACTED “ else print word + “ “ end end

It worked perfectly. When given a line of text and a word to redact, it would print out the line of text, but with the word to redact replaced by REDACTED. However, the system keeps giving me an “Oops, try again” message.

Your code worked for me, and printed a green “Way to go!”

Mine was acting weird as well but seems fine now…

I’m having the same issue. It’s showing the code as working perfectly, but I’m getting the “Oops, try again” message at the bottom.

I think I figured out the glitch. If I run the code and enter a string of text, then enter a word to be redacted that ISN’T in the sentence, it magically tells me I’m correct and lets me move on. Definitely a bug I think.

the code works fine but in order to not get “Oops try again” you need to indent you code properly

For my issue, I just had to add a space after the redaction, like this: “REDACTED “

Here is my code that worked:

puts "Enter a string: "
text = gets.chomp
puts "Enter another string: "
redact = gets.chomp

words = text.split(" ")

words.each do |word|
    if (word == redact)
      print "REDACTED "
    else
      print word + " "
    end
end
