Hello, I am again looking for some guidance as an inexperienced programmer. I appreciate the help. I would like to run a number of ruby files from within rails. They are all different, but return information in a hash (gen_output) in a standard format that my model in rails needs to use. I am storing the files in a folder in "lib". The files can be as basic as 1+2+3, with 3 being returned in the hash. This is in my model: require ''lib/generators/parks_bielkowski_test.rb'' formatted = { :complete_question => gen_output["complete_question"] } formatted I get this error: cannot load such file -- lib/generators/parks_bielkowski_test.rb Do I need to do something to the files themselves?

Whoops, stupid error... require "#{RAILS_ROOT}/lib/generators/parks_bielkowski_test.rb" works!

config.autoload_paths should include ''lib'' to load you code - it is strange that this isn''t happening.
