Hello,
Why Time.now - 86400 works?
but when I tried Time.now(-86400) it won't work.
I was thinking -86400 is an argument for the class method "now".
Thanks.
Time.now.-(86400)
"- is the method here on the Time object that Time.now returns..."

Time.now cannot take any arguments.
So Time.now(-86400) or Time.now -86400 fails.
But that's not how your first line is being interpretted. You're creating a new Time object (with zero arguments) and then subtracting 86400 seconds from it.
