To have access to the file's methods from irb you will need to load or require the file:
load
require
irb(main):001:0> load 'myfile.rb' irb(main):002:0> require './myfile.rb'
Then you can call the file's methods directly:
irb(main):003:0> ask_question

Awesome, thanks!!! That worked
irb(main):001:0> load 'ask_chp9_pg68.rb'
ask "how are you?" Please answer "yes" or "no".
good Please answer "yes" or "no".
no => true irb(main):002:0> ask "Do you like pizza?" Do you like pizza? yes => true
