Bug #15518
Updated by sakuro (Sakuro OZAWA) almost 6 years ago
Ruby 2.5.3's behavior ~~~ # without step, it produces integer sequence >> (1..Float::INFINITY).first(10) #=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10] # with step, it produces floats instead of integers >> (1..Float::INFINITY).step(1).first(10) #=> [1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, 10.0] ~~~ Ruby 2.6.0's behavior ~~~ # endless range (1..).first(10) #=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10] # with step, all numbers are integer now (1..).step(1).first(10) #=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10] # old idiom with Float::INFINITY (1..Float::INFINITY).first(10) #=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10] (1..Float::INFINITY).step(1).first(10) (1..Float::INFINITY).step(10).first(10) #=> FloatDomainError (Infinity) ~~~ Which are intended change and which are not?
