Not in ruby, the for loop was initially put there to make it friendly for people from other languages and is discouraged. It’s just syntax sugar on top of each.
By shortand version I meant
array.each(&:to_s)
(although in this case I’m not calling puts anymore)
edit: lemmy keeps putting the & there, but you know what I mean
It’s valid syntax, it’s part of Ruby. It’s easy to read and familiar across many languages. Write what you want to write, I’m not sure why you feel the need to finger wag.
