 It's going to take some time to find that balance between googling and pushing yourself to solve a problem without hand-holding, and reaching out for help. That's ok! Be patient with yourself. The way you will find that balance is by being aware of how you currently operate. Keep this on your mind as you work through this section, and...there is no time like the present to start asking questions.

To open and `irb` _session_, type `irb` in your Terminal. At that point, you can type any valid Ruby code, then press return. To exit the `irb` session, run `exit`.

Make sure the output you get is similar to what the lesson shows. If you get an error saying "No such file or directory", be sure to verify the directory you are located in via the Terminal- running command `ls` should show the file you are trying to run.
