Nothing specific to dates there, and not a bug. This is just how ranges work: * `range.include?(x)` is basically `range.each.any? {|el| el == x }`, which, with endless range, is an infinite loop * `range.cover?(x)` is basically` `x >= range.begin && x <= range.end`, which is instanteneous. The behavior of `#include?` is redefined for Numeric and String, so `(1..).include?(0)` will behave like `cover?` (return `false` immediately), but with any other type, the behavior is the same as for Date. ---------------------------------------- Bug #17409: Endless range of dates stuck on include? when miss https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17409#change-89317 * Author: gsmetal (Sergey G) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * ruby -v: ruby 2.7.1p83 (2020-03-31 revision a0c7c23c9c) [x86_64-linux] * Backport: 2.5: UNKNOWN, 2.6: UNKNOWN, 2.7: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- This code stucks (on latest ruby 2.7.1): ```ruby require 'date' (Date.today..).include?(Date.today - 1) ``` But it works well with `cover?`: ```ruby 2.7.1 :001 > require 'date' => true 2.7.1 :002 > (Date.today..).cover?(Date.today - 1) => false ``` -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
