[ruby-core:114655] [Ruby master Bug#19864] Ruby 3.2 Changed Behavior With One Sided Ranges

Issue #19864 has been updated by jeremyevans0 (Jeremy Evans).


This appears to fix it:

I'll try to add tests and submit a pull request within a week.

----------------------------------------
Thank you for taking the time to read my issue. I know there has been some previous discussion here https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19533 regarding a similar issue, although I think this is different. I apologize if this has already been addressed.

Prior to Ruby 3.2, you could use a beginless or endless range, and use === (or a case statement) to determine if a given date matched that range. For example, (..today) === yesterday would have returned true, and (tomorrow..) === today would have returned false. Please see my attached file for a more concrete example.

Starting with Ruby 3.2, this results in "`===': cannot determine inclusion in beginless/endless ranges (TypeError)".

I can imagine that there is difficulty and ambiguity with these infinite ranges and non numeric objects, however I do feel that these examples with dates should work, especially since (..Date.today).cover?(Date.today) still works as expected.
