Defined in:

Overview

This cop checks for ambiguous operators in the first argument of a method invocation without parentheses.

Examples:

array = [1, 2, 3]

# The `*` is interpreted as a splat operator but it could possibly be
# a `*` method invocation (i.e. `do_something.*(array)`).
do_something *array

# With parentheses, there's no ambiguity.
do_something(*array)

Constant Summary

AMBIGUITIES =

{
  '+'  => { actual: 'positive number', possible: 'addition' },
  '-'  => { actual: 'negative number', possible: 'subtraction' },
  '*'  => { actual: 'splat',           possible: 'multiplication' },
  '&'  => { actual: 'block',           possible: 'binary AND' },
  '**' => { actual: 'keyword splat',   possible: 'exponent' }
}.each do |key, hash|
  hash[:operator] = key
end

MSG_FORMAT =

'Ambiguous %{actual} operator. Parenthesize the method ' \
"arguments if it's surely a %{actual} operator, or add " \
'a whitespace to the right of the `%{operator}` if it ' \
'should be a %{possible}.'.freeze
