Remove elements from an array into another array (Ruby)

Question

I'm new here and new to coding and I can use some help with a problem I'm trying to solve. I'm trying to remove all integers that are less than 5 from array a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] and put them into a new array b = [], and then print out the b array. I've done many Google searches but I can't find anything that helps. I'm starting to think this is not possible.

Please help! Thanks

Answer 1

a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
b = a.select { |i| i < 5 } # [1, 2, 3, 4]
a = a - b # [5, 6]
