class Name
def intialize(title, first_name, middle_name, last_name)
@title = title
@first_name = first_name
@middle_name = middle_name
@last_name = last_name
end
def title
@title
end
def first_name
@first_name
end
def middle_name

@last_name
end
end
name = Name.new("Ms.", "Vishakha", "", "Agarwal")
puts name.title +
name.first_name +
name.middle_name +
name.last_name
Each time I run this code, I get the following error message:
name.rb:25:in initialize': wrong number of arguments (4 for 0) (ArgumentError)
from name.rb:25:in
new'
from name.rb:25:in `<main>'
However if I run the code with out passing any arguments it would work and give 4 blank lines
Code:
name = Name.new()
puts name.title
puts name.first_name
puts name.middle_name
puts name.last_name

21,109 Pointsyou misspelled "initialize", so it isn't recognizing the code you wrote for the initialize statement.
