Array#sum inconsistency when init value is non-numeric

Added by matsuda (Akira Matsuda) about 7 years ago. Updated over 6 years ago.

ruby -v:
ruby 2.5.0dev (2017-02-17 trunk 57644) [x86_64-darwin15]
[ruby-core:79572]

Description

Since Array#sum skips calling plus for 0 https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/c85a58d/array.c#L5831-L5832, it doesn't raise when the receiver array consists of 0 only, even when the "init" value is non-numeric.

% ruby -e "p [1].sum('a')"
-e:1:in `sum': String can't be coerced into Integer (TypeError)
% ruby -e "p [0].sum('a')"
"a"
% ruby -e "p [0, 0, 0].sum('a')"
"a"

array.c: check if numeric

  • array.c (finish_exact_sum): add 0 and the initial value to check
    if the latter is numeric. [ruby-core:79572] [Bug #13222]

Updated by mtsmfm (Fumiaki Matsushima) about 7 years ago

I confirmed this behavior appears not only 2.5.0dev but also 2.4.x.

$ docker run ruby:2.4.1 ruby -e "p [0].sum('a')"
"a"
$ docker run ruby:2.4.0 ruby -e "p [0].sum('a')"
"a"

Should we backport the patch?
