If a local variable is first assigned to inside of a block, then its 
scope does not extend outside of the block (i.e. it's local to that 
block).

So you can assign to it outside the block:

  foo = nil
  10.times do |x|
    foo = x
  end
  puts foo    # remembers value

However, in this case 'suffix' is itself a block argument. In ruby 1.9, 
it's forced to be local to that block. In ruby 1.8 the block argument 
can be a variable which has already been assigned to, but that's bad 
practice.

suffix = nil
['lol', '%00'].each do |suffix
  ... do stuff
end
puts suffix   # doesn't work in ruby 1.9

So if you want the value of 'suffix' used in the last iteration of the 
loop, simply remember it explicitly.

last_suffix = nil
['lol', '%00'].each do |suffix|
  last_suffix = suffix
  ... do stuff
end
puts last_suffix
