Block.call vs. yield

ruby-talk
1

Let me specify the version numbers I have tested this on, in case it makes a
difference:

ruby 1.7.3 (2002-09-27) [sparc-solaris2.8]
ruby 1.8.0 (2002-12-24) [i686-linux]

I get the same behavior on both.

Thanks,

Matt

I noticed that the use of block/yield differs slightly when a “break” is
called in the code.

You’ve found something unnatural. Let me examine.
