[..., irc.freenode.net] what would be the tooling to start ruby on linux/unix ? emacs/vi customisations some modules ?
<zzak>
[Tom von Schwerdtner, irc.freenode.net] ibba: I don't understand the question
<zzak>
[Jason King, irc.freenode.net] ibba, both of those editors have decent ruby support/plugins, just google for whichever is your preferred editor. Then the other thing that will make your life easier is to use a version manager to actually install ruby itself, take a look at chruby and it's installation helpers ruby-install or ruby-build
<zzak>
[Jason King, irc.freenode.net] None of those are essential, just "make life easier" things.
<zzak>
[Jason King, irc.freenode.net] rubeegginor, yeah, and you can drop the arg to split and you don't have to chomp.
<zzak>
[shevy, irc.freenode.net] ibba just the brain tool - and syntax highlighting helps too
<zzak>
[90.5.91.184 - http://webchat.freenode.net, irc.freenode.net] smathy: what do you mean by dropping the arg to split? The input is a string like that one "2 3", I'm forced to split, no?
<zzak>
[crime, irc.freenode.net] ibba, ruby syntax is very simple. you can easily use any text editor that you feel comfortable with.

[Jason King, irc.freenode.net] rubeegginor, the argument that you're passing to the split method.
<zzak>
[Jason King, irc.freenode.net] rubeegginor, ie. this will do what you want: gets.split.map &:to_i
<zzak>
[Jason King, irc.freenode.net] rubeegginor, np.
<zzak>
[crime, irc.freenode.net] so I'm fiddling with 2.3, and if I do "something&.split("")" I get a no-method error. I thought the lonely operator was supposed to fix that?
<zzak>
[crime, irc.freenode.net] something would be nil in that scenario, so shouldnt it just return nil?
