Need help with Ruby Loops: loop do, get_answer()

Seems basic, but I can't pass this challenge. Thanks for a little help.

loop.rb 
# Assume get_answer() is already defined
do loop 
  answer = get_answer()
  if answer == e
    break
  end
end

Please watch the preceding video again and read the notes under it. Check what the syntax is for the loop construct (the order of keywords) and see how strings are constructed in Ruby.
