hey folks
I've often wondered if i can use Symbol#to_proc with arguments - reading
Dave Thomas's explanation on this page
http://pragdave.pragprog.com/pragdave/2005/11/symbolto_proc.html it
looks like i would be able to do this:
(irb):12: syntax error, unexpected ',', expecting ')'
array.collect(&:split, 'l')
^
(irb):12: syntax error, unexpected ')', expecting $end
from (irb):12
But it fails as you can see. Trying to fully grasp what's going on with
Symbol#to_proc makes my head hurt a little bit (it is only 9.16am here)
and i'm clearly not getting it. Can anyone explain?
