Ruby - Loops and Iteration

Which of the following is the correct syntax to use the times method with a block variable?

A5.times do |i| puts i end

B5.times { |i puts i }

C5.times { puts |i| i }

D5.times |i| { puts i }

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Identify correct block syntax with variable
Ruby allows do |var| ... end or { |var| ... } for blocks.
Step 2: Check each option's syntax correctness
5.times do |i| puts i end uses do |i| ... end correctly. 5.times { |i puts i } misses the closing pipe around the block variable. Options A, B, and D have syntax errors.
Final Answer:
5.times do |i| puts i end -> Option A
Quick Check:
Block variable syntax = do |var| ... end [OK]

Quick Trick: Use do |var| ... end or { |var| ... } correctly [OK]
