some looping stuff.rb

# Suppose I want to the user to enter names one at a time, until the user enters a blank line, 
# then tell each name that they're awesome. In a typical programming language, my first instinct
# would be to do:

while (name = gets.chomp) != ""
    puts name + ", you are so awesome"

# or perhaps alternatively, to get the names to print afterwards

names = Array.new
while (name = gets.chomp) != ""
    names.push name
end

names.each do |nom|
    puts "#{nom}, you are so awesome"
end

# But this is a very C way of doing things, and Ruby is supposed to be more elegant. How would you
# do this? Seems like there has to be a way of avoiding using a while loop, and it's probably actually
# really easy, but I'm just being dumb slash don't know Ruby that well.
