Monkey Patching Float class Infix Operators Produces Unexpected Result

Added by screenmutt (Dan Grahn) about 11 years ago. Updated about 11 years ago.


Description

Hello!

Patching Float class infix operators seem to work only if 2 are present. See the code below.

class Float
  def /(other)
    "magic"
  end
end

first_result = 10.0 / 2.0

class Float
  def *(other)
    "weird"
  end
end

second_result = 10.0 / 2.0

if first_result == 5.0 && second_result == "magic"
  puts "Bug confirmed"
else
  puts "Bug not present"
end
