iterate through an @Array

[John William]

New to ruby
If I have an Array

@sample_array

How do I display the attr_accessors in a table
This doesn’t seem to be the right way as it repeats the table each time
it iterates through the array.

Thanks,

John

@sample_array.each do |t|
puts "<table width='1000' border='1' cellspacing='3' cellpadding='0'>"
puts"<tr><td>#{t.name}</td><td>#{t.address}</td><td>#{t.city}</td><td>#{t.state}</td></
tr>"
puts “</table>â€
end

Hey John,
You just need to move the table start and end outside of the each
statement. Everything inside the each block gets done for each item
in the array:

# Do once
puts "<table width=3D'1000' border=3D'1' cellspacing=3D'3' cellpadding=3D'0=
'>"

@sample_array.each do |t|
# Do for every item in the array (make one row per item)
puts"<tr><td>#{t.name}</td><td>#{t.address}</td><td>#{t.city}</td><td>#{t=
state}</td></tr>"
end

# Do once
puts =93</table>=94

Thank you all for your help. It makes sense now and works perfect!
