Quoting removed_email_address@domain.invalid:

Ah. I thought a semicolon terminated a statement.

It does; it’s just that the current Ruby grammar permits multiple
statements within the same set of parenthesis (separated by
semicolons or newlines).

I guess a = ( 4 ; + 5 ) is not so different from C’s a = ( 4 , + 5 )

Live and learn! :slight_smile:
