Redacted Iterator in Ruby

I am going through a Ruby course on Codecademy.com. The problem is listed under Iterators and Loops. Here are the instructions:

Let's start simple: write an .each loop that goes through words and just prints out each word it finds.

Here is what I have which does not seem to pass the test, so I just want to know if it is correct or not.

puts "need input please"
text = gets.chomp

words = text.split(" ")
words.each do |x|
  puts "#{x}"
end

puts "need another input"
redact = gets.chomp

Somewhat oddly, this is what passed the course example

puts "need input please"
text = gets.chomp
words = text.split(" ") 
redact = gets.chomp

Which is obcviously not right since it does not make use of the .each loop.

words.each do |x|
  puts "#{x}"
end

x is your block variable, and doesn't need to be interpolated.

Try

words.each do |x|
  puts x
end
