Subject: [ruby-core:65140] [ruby-trunk - Feature #4276] Allow use of quotes in symbol syntactic sugar for hashes

Issue #4276 has been updated by Nobuyoshi Nakada.


Just a note: last evening at RubyKaigi 2014, talked to matz about this issue, and got his approval to introduce this to see if anyone rants.


----------------------------------------
Feature #4276: Allow use of quotes in symbol syntactic sugar for hashes
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/4276#change-48993

* Author: Tyler Benster
* Status: Closed
* Priority: Low
* Assignee: Yukihiro Matsumoto
* Category: core
* Target version: next minor
----------------------------------------
Current syntactic sugar allows this:

    hash = {Alabama: "AL"}

This feature request is to also allow symbols delimited by quotes (and thus able to contain a whitespace) to use an equivalent syntactic sugar:

    hash2 = {"Rhode Island": "RI"}
