ruby syntax

>> nil.empty?
NoMethodError: You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!
You might have expected an instance of Array.
The error occurred while evaluating nil.empty?
>> nil.to_s.empty?      # Message chaining
=> true

It’s worth noting that the nil object is special, in that it is the only Ruby object that is false in a boolean context, apart from false itself:

>> if nil
>>   true
>> else
>>   false        # nil is false
>> end
=> false

# 0 (and everything other than nil and false itself) is true

>>  "foo bar     baz".split     # Split a string into a three-element array
=> ["foo", "bar", "baz"]
>> "fooxbarxbazx".split('x')
=> ["foo", "bar", "baz"]

>> a.sort
=> [8, 17, 42]
>> a.reverse
=> [17, 8, 42]
>> a.shuffle
=> [17, 42, 8]
