This is a bad hack that produces obfuscated code and does not work properly, if you splat a hash you will end up with an array of arrays. What you want is something like Array.wrap from rails, which both communicates intention clearly and works universally. Splatting an array should consistently destructure it. ---------------------------------------- Bug #10837: spatting a single element array produces an array instead of a single value for return and next https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/10837#change-59642 * Author: bug hit * Status: Rejected * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * ruby -v: ruby 2.2.0p0 (2014-12-25 revision 49005) [x86_64-linux] * Backport: 2.0.0: UNKNOWN, 2.1: UNKNOWN, 2.2: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- irb(main):013:0> ->{return *[1]}.() => [1] irb(main):014:0> ->{next *[1]}.() => [1] ______________ *[x] should mean x as it already does for arguments -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
