"Ruby code can have a syntax error in a conditional..."
No, it can't. If this is something you've seen "many times", would you mind providing an example? Show me a program that Ruby tries to execute without having been able to parse it.
- TheDong 11y agoif foo.something foo.instance_eval "SYNTAX ERROR" end I know any form of eval is sort of cheating... But perhaps what he meant was not a syntax error, but things like: if foo.something foo.something_misspelled = bar end Which isn't technically a syntax error, but that code is invalid in a statically typed language.
