Rails strange error => IndexError: string not matched

Question

I\'ve got a very strange message error. I think it\'s not coming from Ruby but from the unix system.

So, I have the following test file:

require File         


        

Answer 1

This happens, for example, when you try to access a string variable as a Hash by mistake.

s = "a string"
s["position"] = "an other string"

IndexError: string not matched
    from (irb):5:in `[]='
    from (irb):5
