Issue #16666 has been reported by vladpisanov (Vlad Pisanov). ---------------------------------------- Feature #16666: 'string' - 'str' as a shortcut for 'string'.gsub('str', '')? https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/16666 * Author: vladpisanov (Vlad Pisanov) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal ---------------------------------------- Sorry if this has been brought up before, but I couldn't find anything. I love how we can substract arrays (`[1,2,3] - [1,2]`). Does anyone else think the same syntax would be beneficial for Strings? Some possible scenarios could be: ```ruby 'string' - 'str' # Remove substring 'string' - ['s', 't'] # Remove a set of characters 'string' - /^st/ # Remove by regexp ``` -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
