arnab / detect_and_ternary_op.rb

Created June 27, 2013 07:27

Another weirdness between Ruby 1.8 and Ruby 1.9

	stuff = (1..10).to_a
	# => [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]

	stuff = stuff.detect { \|stuff\| stuff.even? } ? stuff : 'none found'

	#### Ruby 1.8 #######
	# => 2
	# So, #detect first runs, finds 2 and the result is reassigned into "stuff"
	# the ternary operation follows, with "stuff" set to 2

Figure out which tests are causing weird warnings.

	# setup etc.

	test "something should do something" do
	get :new
	# assert something
	end

	# more tests

	the_clone = p.clone
	the_dup = p.dup
