Ruby - command exit error

Question

I'm completely new to programming and im having trouble figuring out why Im getting an error when typing the following:

puts "What is your favorite number?"
number = gets.chomp
number = number.to_i + 1
puts "I suggest " + number.to_s + " as a bigger and better number"

When I run in terminal the following error appears:

What is your favorite number?

It looks like your Ruby installation is mangled somehow. Are you using the system Ruby or is using something like RVM or RBenv an option? — tadman

The code works. How are you running the script? Put it in a file like number.rb and then run it by typing ruby number.rb

This is more of a comment than an answer. Maybe you can expand on it a little?
