From: Mark Probert Date: 2002-09-24T01:09:45+09:00 Subject: another easy one... My brain just isn't working this morn... Say, ch is a character and I want to find if it exists in a regexp /A-Za-z0-9_/. How do I do it? irb> c.include?(/A-Za-z0-9_/) "TypeError: cannot convert Regexp into String" I can do: irb> c.count("A-Za-z0-9_") 1 And look for a 0 being a non-match. Help, please! :-) -mark.
