From: Amitraj singh Chouhan Date: 2008-07-09T16:01:21+09:00 Subject: type specific operator Hi all, Ruby is a dynamically typed language so it checks at run time the type of the variable and calls corresponding operator. For example "x + y" will be checked for type of x and y if both will be fixnum then corresponding addition action will be performed if both are strings the corresponding appending action will be performed. My question is" Is there any type specific operator facility available in ruby? If somehow we can infer the type of the variables then we can directly use those specific operators. I am not aware about any such operator. IF there is any please give me the references. Thanks amitraj -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
