Can anyone help me with this ruby script?

I am very new to ruby and I was hoping someone could help me. In the following script I am asking the user their favorite number. I would then like to add a one to their favorite number and suggest the resultant number as a better favorite number.

puts 'What\'s your favorite number?'
number = gets.chomp.to_s
puts 'Your favorite number is '+number+'.'

If anyone could tell me how to this it would be great!

Hi,

Well, this site was designed with Ruby, so you may want to FunMail the programmer. His username on here is esconsult1. He can probably help you

puts 'What\'s your favorite number?'
number = gets.chomp.to_s

new_number = number.to_i + 1

puts 'Your favorite number is '+new_number+'.'

To explain a little bit more:

new_number = number.to_i + 1

Converts "number" which you converted to a string before with "gets.chomp.to_s" (you read the input from the terminal and converted it to a string so it can be appended to the other string that you are printing out with the other "puts" statement. Fine.

However, a short way to do all that is also:

number = gets.chomp.to_i + 1
puts ' A better number is ' + number.to_s
