Issue #5695 has been reported by Suraj Kurapati. ---------------------------------------- Feature #5695: CoffeeScript "is" and "isnt" keywords http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/5695 Author: Suraj Kurapati Status: Open Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Hello, Please add "is" and "isnt" keywords, which behave like the "==" and "!=" operators respectively, to Ruby. These keywords come from the CoffeeScript language. They are useful to prevent accidental assignment (forgetting a "=" in "==") and they preserve reading order, unlike inverted "if 5 == x" expressions known as "Yoda conditionals". Thanks for your consideration. -- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org
