When I ran the program, Ruby told me that I was not providing enough arguments to the method, instead of saying the variable was not initialized, or something like that. So you can recreate it, here's a sample of code: `def operatorDepth str` ` opDepth = 0;` ` while str[opDepth] != '+' and str[opDepth] != '-' and \` ` str[operatorDepth] != '=' and opDepth < str.length #The line in error(forgot to replace operatorDepth with opDepth)` ` opDepth += 1;` ` end` ` return opDepth;` `end` `puts(operatorDepth("2 + 2"));` -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
