Although Ruby's syntax is indeed quite flexible I'm rarely bitten by
this.  I definitively struggled more with Perl in the old days I used
it rather frequently.  So, the good news is: although you stepped into
this once you likely won't too often in the future.  Ah, and btw, the
flag "-w" is also a good way to learn about some of these errors.

Kind regards
