Re: Ruby Range issues

From: Ray Bovet <Ray@...>

Thanks for the comments, Robert.

I agree that .succ for a Time is not obvious (there actually *is* a .succ
method for Time in 1.9.2 although it reports that it is deprecated), but I'd
still like to be able to use a specific step value.  It may be that your
wrapping suggestion is the best way forward, but I would think a lot of
people might want to be able to step through time intervals.

On the second issue, you only show the results with two dots.  What I was
concerned about was when you use three dots in order to exclude the endpoint
of the range.  In both 1.8.7 and 1.9.2p136 you only get 1.0 and 3.0.  It
appears that it first converts the end points to Integer before doing the
end comparison.  Here's an example in 1.9.2 showing both the 2 dot and the 3
dot versions:

irb
ruby-1.9.2-p136 :001 > ( 1.0 .. 5.01).step(2).to_a
 => [1.0, 3.0, 5.0]
ruby-1.9.2-p136 :002 > ( 1.0 ... 5.01).step(2).to_a
 => [1.0, 3.0]
