	# playing with numbers.. Checking the general backslashes to be run..
	puts( 4 * 5)
	puts("\n")
	# This is not allowed..I guess.. puts (100/20) puts("\t") puts(20 + 30)
	puts (100/20 + 90/54)
	puts("\t")
	puts(20 + 30)
	# Escape sequences and all need to be given with double quotes not single quotes.. puts("\n")
	puts("\n")
	num = 50 - 30
	puts("Subtraction of 50 - 30 is: \t #{num}")
	num1 = 3**3
	puts("Exponentiation of 3^3 is: \t #{num1}")
	num2 = 5%3 # Modulo in operation.. do note..
	puts("Value of 5 modulo 3 is: \t #{num2}")
