From: S2 Date: 2008-02-28T21:39:57+09:00 Subject: proc.new and return I am sure this is a really easy question for most of you, but i was not able to find an answer to this, or to understand the difference between this two: $ irb irb(main):001:0> a = Proc.new {true} => # irb(main):002:0> b = a.call => true irb(main):003:0> a = Proc.new {return true} => # irb(main):004:0> b = a.call LocalJumpError: unexpected return from (irb):3 from (irb):4:in `call' from (irb):4 from :0 why can't a block return something?
