One part of Ruby which I wish hadn't been modelled on other languages (Perl ? via C ?) is: p 010 #-> 8 (i.e. unmodified leading zero implies octal) Didn't octal die when hex came along ? I just think that octal should be written explicitly like the other non-decimals. It's not uncommon to see numeric fields with leading zeros and most humans are unlikely to think of any octal connection, but reading them in without left-stripping could have caused no end of banking discrepancies. This design decision would have been taken before cr#ck was widely available and before Ruby was born, but I suspect some kind of hallucinogen was involved. Still, I know it's another of those "break existing code" things that trap us in the past. Anonymously, daz
