Subject: [ruby-core:40916] Re: [ruby-trunk - Feature #5607] Inconsistent reaction in Range of String

Yes, but if "X < AB" is false, "X" should not be *between* "A" and "AB".

Issue #5607 has been updated by Alexey Muranov.


This behavior of range seems consistent with

"X"<"AB"  # => false

in Ruby 1.9.3.

Feature #5607: Inconsistent reaction in Range of String

When I tried to access excel file, I found some inconsistent behavior about range of string. 

ruby-1.9.3-p0 :001 > ("A".."AB").to_a
 => ["A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F", "G", "H", "I", "J", "K", "L", "M", "N", "O", "P", "Q", "R", "S", "T", "U", "V", "W", "X", "Y", "Z", "AA", "AB"]

This behavior is as what I thought.

ruby-1.9.3-p0 :002 > ("X".."AB").to_a
 => []

However, I tried to access "X" to "AB", and its reaction is inconsistent with above example.

I hope that behavior would be consistent in future release.

Thanks!
