Question

on Rails console. I tried to input something, I don’t want input everything in one line. But when I tried to type “C-Enter” or “Shift-Enter”, it doesn’t work.
What should i do?

Thank you

Answer 1

Leave a dangling line of code (ending a line with an operator or a comma)

puts "hello " +
  "world"

class Foo
  def this_line(is,
    unfinished)
  end
end

This won’t work with MRI Ruby 1.9:

puts "hello
  world"

However, a better way of doing this would be:

puts <<-EOF
  hello
  world
EOF
