Subject: Star in case statements

I just noticed something that I either didn't know
or just forgot. :)

You can use the *array notation to specify values
for the when clause in a case statement:

  list1 = [1,2,6,8,9]
  list2 = [3,4,5,7,10]
  case item 
    when *list1
      puts "in list 1"
    when *list2
      puts "in list 2"
  end

Cool, eh?

Hal
