I have the following array:

nombres = ["Violeta", "Andino", "Clemente", "Javiera", "Paula", "Pia", "Ray"]
a = nombres.map

And I would like to create another one and store it in the variable by removing all the vowels from the names.

Using .map and .gsub

You could just use something like this:

string.gsub(/[aeiou]/, '')

Or better:

string.tr('aeiou', '')

And the best tool to remove characters in a string is ...

string.delete('aeiou')

As suggested by @Gerry, you can do it with map :

a = nombres.map { |nombre| nombre.delete('aeiou') }
