Subject: [ruby-talk:27657] Inconsistence in ranges with if

Hi!
I just came across an inconsistency:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

(1..3).each {|i| puts i}
puts

(1...3).each {|i| puts i}
puts

a = ["one", "two", "three", "four", "five", "six"]

a.each do |l|
  puts l if l =~ /two/ .. l =~ /five/
end
puts

a.each do |l|
  puts l if l =~ /two/ ... l =~ /five/
end


This prints:
1
2
3

1
2

two
three
four
five

two
three
four
five

But i thought it should print
1
2
3

1
2

two
three
four
five

two
three
four


Am i correct here?
Thanks,
Martin.
