Maybe you want "zzzzzzzzz".to_i, which returns 0.
to_i ignores leading/following characters that aren't in the 0-9 range
and so never causes errors. Integer() is interested in a base radix,
like "0x", and raises an exception if it sees a bad one. That is to say,
it is probably right to complain about a zexadecimal number. :-)
