Subject: * splat error

Hello, i need some help here, when i run the following code i get the
error below. Why is that, according to the textbook it should work, also
looked it up in the cookbook, no luck there too. Thanks in advance.

def split_apart(first, *splat, last)
  puts "first: #{first.inspect}, splat: #{splat.inspect}, " +
       "last: #{last.inspect}"
 end

split_apart(1,2)
split_apart(1, 2, 3)

Error:

/home/gribota1/NetBeansProjects/Analyzer/lib/rubymethods.rb:32: syntax
error, unexpected tIDENTIFIER, expecting tAMPER or '&'
def split_apart(first, *splat, last)
                                   ^
