Subject: do/end vs braces

Hi all,

It looks to me like when you use an iterator (each for instance), you can make 
the block either from a do/end pair, or from curly braces. All things being 
equal, I'd greatly prefer to use do/end. Are there any differences in runtime 
speed, capabilities, or Rubyness?

#!/usr/bin/ruby
(1..4).each do |i|
	puts i
end
print "================\n"
(1..4).each { |i|
	puts i
}

Output:

[slitt@mydesk slitt]$ ./test.rb
1
2
3
4
================
1
2
3
4
[slitt@mydesk slitt]$

Thanks

SteveT
