 and you find this normal ?

vg% ruby -vce 'print (a + b)'
ruby 1.8.2 (2004-07-29) [i686-linux]
-e:1: warning: (...) interpreted as grouped expression
Syntax OK
svg% 

svg% ruby -vce 'a { print (a + b) }'
ruby 1.8.2 (2004-07-29) [i686-linux]
-e:1: warning: don't put space before argument parentheses
Syntax OK
svg% 



 What is the next step ?

 ruby will use a random generator to know if it must give the warning

     "warning: (...) interpreted as grouped expression"

 or

     "warning: don't put space before argument parentheses"


 :-)))
