Issue #5695 has been updated by mame (Yusuke Endoh). Status changed from Open to Rejected Priority changed from Normal to Low Target version set to 3.0 I strongly believe that this proposal has no hope. -- Yusuke Endoh <mame / tsg.ne.jp> ---------------------------------------- Feature #5695: CoffeeScript "is" and "isnt" keywords https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/5695#change-25271 Author: sunaku (Suraj Kurapati) Status: Rejected Priority: Low Assignee: Category: Target version: 3.0 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://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
