Asp Forum - Slightly odd Integer() behavior

Lorenzo E. Danielsson

Integer(gets), works well if you enter any integer apart from 0, which
complains about "0\n" not being a valid integer. As expected,
Integer(gets.chomp) works for all integers, including 0.

Is it just me, or is this a tad bit weird? If it is not weird, then I
assume that I am weird for thinking it is weird so could somebody please
enlighten me on the source of my weirdness?

All this is happening on Ruby 1.8.6 running on an Etch/Lenny/Sid combo,
which I assume has nothing to do with the issue at hand.

For me (Windows2000) it works well for Ruby 1.8.6, but not for nightly
snapshot of Ruby 1.9...

>type putsgets.rb
puts Integer(gets)
puts Integer(gets)
>ruby -v
ruby 1.8.6 (2007-03-13 patchlevel 0) [i386-mswin32]

>ruby putsgets.rb
5
5
0
0

>ruby19 -v
ruby 1.9.0 (2007-12-02 patchlevel 0) [i386-mingw32]

>ruby19 putsgets.rb
5
5
0
putsgets.rb:2:in `Integer': invalid value for Integer: "0\n"
(ArgumentError)
from putsgets.rb:2:in `<main>'

I'll post this in ruby-core because it looks strange.
