From: Adam Lauper Date: 2009-08-13T15:20:18+09:00 Subject: Background on why Ruby doesn't support ++ Hi All, I'm a big Ruby fan and I'm not trying to complain. I'm just curious as to why Ruby doesn't support the ++ or -- operators. Is there some syntactical ambiguity that's associated with it or something. Anyone know the history on this deliberate omission? Thanks! Adam -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
