Subject: [ruby-core:51776] [ruby-trunk - Bug #7752] Rational/Float/Fixnum/Bignum `.to_s.encoding` is US-ASCII


Issue #7752 has been updated by jballanc (Joshua Ballanco).


US-ASCII is a strict subset of UTF-8, so I don't think there's necessarily any lying involved.

=begin
When converting an instance of Rational/Float/Fixnum/Bignum to a string with the (({.to_s})) method, the resulting string has the encoding US-ASCII. This happens for 1.9.3 as well as 2.0.0rc1.

(({> __ENCODING__}))
(({ => #<Encoding:UTF-8>})) 

(({> Encoding.default_internal}))
(({ => #<Encoding:UTF-8>})) 

(({> Encoding.default_external}))
(({ => #<Encoding:UTF-8>})) 

(({> 1.to_s.encoding}))
(({#=> #<Encoding:US-ASCII>}))

(({> (2/1).to_r.to_s.encoding}))
(({ => #<Encoding:US-ASCII>}))

(({> "abc".encoding}))
(({ => #<Encoding:UTF-8>}))

=end
