string.tr bug?

Greetings,
I found strange behaviour of string.tr:

p "=+=/=".tr("+/=", ",-@")
got ".,.-."
expected "@,@-@"

Is this bug in ruby?

It's not a bug. For tr ",-@" is the same as ",-./0123456789:;<=>?@". You have
to escape the - to use it as a literal "-":
"=+=/=".tr("+/=", ',\-@') #=> "@,@-@"

HTH,
Sebastian

It's only been two weeks since the dome appeared. I loved how "The Girl
with the Dragon Nostril", aka, Big Red, was able to do the breast stroke
and CPR after being released from the ER with a gunshot wound to her
breast.

This show is more like a cartoon than a science fiction drama.
Unfortunately for the Dome and the King of pop-culture, The Simpsons did
it hundreds of times better.

From the science teacher's model, the Dumb itself shrank to about 1/4
it's size and relocated it's center as well.

Ah HAH! I've always wondered why she's saying a fond farewell to Scotty
at the end, when she never meets him in the damned episode. And, for
that matter, why the Hell she isn't assigned to show him around; it's
not like she has anything better to do. Thanks!

No and it's disgusting. Degrassi is off the rails. There is never
anything good that happens to anyone any longer in this series. At
least Imogen is crushing hard for Jack. (Jack's a female for those
that don't know).

I thought it was hilarious that she sees a girl, apparently in distress
out in the middle of a lake, and she decides to swim several hundred
yards to go get her rather than, you know, take the boat she's standing
right next to.

Meanwhile the cries for help carry far far away into the lost wilderness
the EMT is hiding in, and he comes running ...

LOL, so she just made a completely inaccurate model, for fun? That
would be about right for this (why does it have to be a model anyway and
not just a map?). It would have been *so* nice if she'd build this
based on the kids' survey.
