Bug #6524

closed

missing "#=>" in example block in Regexp class documentation

Added by nathanst (Nathan Stratton Treadway) over 12 years ago. Updated over 12 years ago.

Status:
Closed
Target version:
ruby -v:
1.9.3
Backport:
[ruby-core:45358]

Description

In the Regexp class documentation, "Performance" section, the code block that starts out "# Match a string of 29 as against a pattern of 29 optional" seems to be the only block of sample code on the page which would return a value but that doesn't include a "#=>" in the sample block to show what is returned.

(Also, it might be a little easier for readers to concentrate on the point of the discussion here if that example was as close as possible to the following one, rather having one use use =~ while the other uses .match() ....)

Nathan, thank you for reporting this issue.
Your contribution to Ruby is greatly appreciated.
May Ruby be with you.
