first of all, i don''t really think u''d be using %{} too much of the time (you might use some of the options available, like %q{} which is like single quotes, and %Q{} which is like double-quotes. basically: %{} -> turns the stuff written into a string. #{} -> if inside double quotes, eval the code inside. hope the following example helps out a bit more:>> shai@meshi:~/ruby$ cat str.rb#!/usr/bin/ruby one=1 two=2 puts "the variable ''one'' used with \#{} is #{one}" puts "this is one with %{} in a string: %{one}" puts "this is one with %{} ruby (not within a string):" + %{one} puts ""; puts "notice something else though:"; puts "" puts "this is two with ruby and %q{}:" + %q{#{two}} puts "this is two with ruby and %Q{}:" + %Q{#{two}}>> shai@meshi:~/ruby$ ruby str.rbthe variable ''one'' used with #{} is 1 this is one with %{} in a string: %{one} this is one with %{} ruby (not within a string):one notice something else though: this is two with ruby and %q{}:#{two} this is two with ruby and %Q{}:2 -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
