Whether to accept a splat (perhaps on an array) at the beginning of an argument is not something to be specified as a method signature. Your real issue is to let the method accept an arbitrary number of arguments. Whether you give it an array with a splat or you directly pass multiple arguments is solely up to how you use it in the particular context. ---------------------------------------- Feature #13211: Hash#delete taking a splat https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/13211#change-62983 * Author: Kevin Deisz * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Target version: ---------------------------------------- Hi there, I would like to add the ability for Hash#delete to take a splat of arguments that would delete entries at each of the given keys. I've run into this quite a few times where it would be useful in application code. Something like ``` def preprocess(args = {}) do_some_preprocessing(%i[a b c].zip(args.delete(:a, :b, :c)).to_h) process(args) end ``` Would be very happy to work on a patch for this if it's desired. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
