Using a variable across classes in Ruby - ruby

Question

I have this class:
class Player
attr_accessor :card_pile, :name
def initialize
#name = name
#bust = false
#card_pile = []
end
def bust?
return #cards.inject(:+) > 21
end
end
I also have this as the beginning of another class
def playing_game
puts "How many players are playing? "
players_amount = gets.chomp.to_i
(0...players_amount).each do
puts ("What is the players name? ")
#name = gets.chomp
#players.push(#name)
end
#players.each do |each_player|
#name = Player.new
while true
while #name.card_pile.length < 2 do
new_card = Card.new
#name.card_pile.push(new_card.value)
end
puts(#name.card_pile)
print #name, "'s turn" "\n"
At the moment this will print out #<Player:0x007fc14984a4b0>'s turn instead of Rich's turn
Why is this happening? I thought I had made an instance variable in the Player class and then instantiated this class #name = Player.new and then could reference it from here on out??

Answer 1

This will help
def playing_game
puts 'How many players are playing?'
players_amount = gets.chomp.to_i
players_names = (0...players_amount).map do
puts ("What is the players name? ")
gets.chomp
end
players_names.each do |player_name|
player = Player.new(player_name)
while player.card_pile.length < 2 do
new_card = Card.new
player.card_pile.push(new_card.value)
end
puts player.card_pile
puts "#{player.name}'s turn"
end
end
UPD:
You don't need instance variables (like #name and #players inside single method).
In this code you iterate over players names
#players.each do |each_player|
=>
players_names.each do |player_name|
In context of
#name = Player.new
name is a Player instance
to create player with given name pass it to initializer:
player = Player.new(player_name)
then call name on Player instance, that you create earlier
puts "#{player.name}'s turn"
