I'm not sure if there's any significance to using the flip-flop syntax with
nil
, but by using beginless or endless ranges and explicitly specifyingnil
, the following current behaviors are made compatible:iflipflop
with explicitlynil
eflipflop
with explicitlynil
The difference in the flip-flop with beginless or endless ranges is that
s(:nil)
is replaced bynil
in the flip-flop ASTs.This is reflected in the tests.
