Unexpected Keyword_End Error, Yet Syntax Seems Fine

Unexpected keyword_end error, yet syntax seems fine

Your error comes from line:

current_word ++

There's no such syntax in Ruby. It should be:

current_word += 1

What's more, you create your regexp incorrectly. It should be:

namecatcher_regex = /^[\.{1}]([A-Z]+)\.{3}/

There may be some other errors that I didn't notice.

Why am I getting unexpected keyword_end error with this block?

I was an idiot, I totally forgot that Ruby doesn't make use of the increment operator....doh!

Changed from:

@followers2.each do |follow| 
  @followers3 << Twitter.user(follow)
  break if i >10
  i++
end

To this:

@followers2.each do |follow| 
  @followers3 << Twitter.user(follow)
  break if i >10
  i+=1
end

Syntax error, unexpected keyword_end and unexpected end_of_input

++ operator doesn't exist in Ruby. Just use += 1.

Syntax error, unexpected keyword_end, expecting ')' end

I think I see your syntax error on this line:
<p><%= number_to_currency(@pacs_money + " from " + @pacs + " PACs" %></p>

There's no closing parenthesis for number_to_currency. It should be:

<p><%= number_to_currency(@pacs_money) + " from " + @pacs + " PACs" %></p>

Syntax Error in Ruby. unexpected keyword_end, expecting end-of-inputs

You can't define a module using module Auth():

irb(main):001:0> module Auth()
irb(main):002:1> end
SyntaxError: (irb):1: syntax error, unexpected '\n', expecting :: or '[' or '.'

and

irb(main):001:0> module Auth()
irb(main):002:1>   def login(id)
irb(main):003:2>   end
irb(main):004:1> end
SyntaxError: (irb):1: syntax error, unexpected '\n', expecting :: or '[' or '.'
(irb):4: syntax error, unexpected keyword_end, expecting end-of-input

Removing the trailing parenthesis fixes the error:

irb(main):001:0> module Auth
irb(main):002:1>   def login(id)
irb(main):003:2>   end
irb(main):004:1> end
=> :login

and

irb(main):001:0> module Auth
irb(main):002:1>   module_function()
irb(main):003:1>
irb(main):004:1*   def login(id)
irb(main):005:2>     members = ['abc', 'def', 'ghi']
irb(main):006:2>
irb(main):007:2*     for member in members do
irb(main):008:3*       if (id == member)
irb(main):009:4>         return true
irb(main):010:4>       end
irb(main):011:3>     end
irb(main):012:2>     return false
irb(main):013:2>   end
irb(main):014:1> end
=> :login

Your code could be more Ruby-like:

def login(id)
  ['abc', 'def', 'ghi'].each do |member|
    return true if (id == member)
  end
  return false
end
login('ghi') # => true
login('foo') # => false

which can be refactored to:

def login(id)
  ['abc', 'def', 'ghi'].any? { |member| (id == member) }
end
login('ghi') # => true
login('foo') # => false

then to:

def login(id)
  ['abc', 'def', 'ghi'].include?(id)
end
login('ghi') # => true
login('foo') # => false

Getting syntax error, unexpected keyword_end, expecting end-of-input

Your indentation is messed up and you've added an extra end in there because of it.

The private declaration should be at the same level as class.

A general template looks like:

class Example
  def method
    # ...
  end

private
  def private_method
  end
end

What you have:

class Example
  def method
    # ...
  end

  private
    def private_method
    end
  end
end
