I solved my problem through
require_relative
require './whateverfileiplannedtorequire'
load 'whateverfileiplannedtorequire'
but I am trying to get require
to work without the ./
at the beginning as is advertised in the Beginning Ruby book. I hoped pushing my CWD
into the $:
array would fix this, but it didn't. How would I manage to get require
to work as shown in the book?
