[ruby-core:96064] [Ruby master Bug#16389] Unexpected tINTEGER in conditional expression

Issue #16389 has been updated by mame (Yusuke Endoh).

Status changed from Open to Closed

You need to parenthesize the argument 15.

```
foo unless (@bar&.nil? && @baz&.>(15))
```

I don't think that your expectation is wrong, but due to parser limitation, we cannot place a non-parenthesized method call as an argument of `&&`.  It is a good practice to write parentheses for method calls, except some trivial cases (e.g., no-argument method calls and `p arg`).

Bug #16389: Unexpected tINTEGER in conditional expression

----------------------------------------
I'm not sure that this is a bug, or simply an unexpected result of operator precedence, but I am seeing a result that appears to me to be an issue.

When putting a conditional expression after a command call using `unless`, I am seeing a syntax error when I believe the syntax should be valid. In particular:

```ruby
def foo
    puts "This method just has to exist"
end

foo unless (@bar&.nil? && @baz&.> 15)
```

This produces`syntax error, unexpected tINTEGER, expecting ')'`  following the `&.>` safe navigation. I would not expect a syntax error here.

This seems a strange result to me, as `foo unless (@bar&.nil? and @baz&.> 15)` appears to work as expected, producing no syntax error.

Please let me know if I am missing something in either my expectation or the issue report. Thanks!
