Pay particular attention to regular expressions, the String class (especially the split and join methods), the Array class, and looping constructs such as each. Then try writing your function. If something goes wrong that you can''t figure out, tell us what you tried, and what errors or other output you got. Good luck!

Try this:
words = "Kid games need to be both fun and educational. Aimed at ages
pre-K through middle school, safe environment to discover their
abilities and learn new skills with interactive and fun computer
games. Our games build skills in math, logic, memory, vocabulary,
alphabet, spelling, geography, computer skills, color identification,
shape identification and other various problem solving. Our commitment

building with a sense of challenge, fun, and self esteem."
line_length = 10
word_arry = words.split(" ")
text = (0..(words.length / line_length)).inject([]) {|v,num| start num *
line_length; v << %Q{<= #{words[(start)...(start +
line_length)].join(" ")} =>}}
text.join("\n")
Shame on me...

I am quite a beginner; it is not clean clode but works
number_of_words = 10
sentence = sentence.split(/\n/m).join(" ")
sentence.gsub!(" "," ")
r = /.*?[.!?](?:\s|$)/
sentences = sentence.scan(r)
sentences.map! {|e| e.split}
v = []
sentences.each do |e|
while !e.empty?
vv = []
number_of_words.times {vv << (e.shift.to_s + " ")}
v << vv
end
end
v.each {|e| e.delete_if {|x| x == " "}}
v.map! {|e| e.join}
v.each {|e| p e}
