Ruby: what's the difference between initializing a string using quotes vs colon? -

-

whats' difference between initializing string using quotes vs preceding colon? i.e "bobo" vs :bobo. when inspect them appear same when compare them result evaluates false.

irb(main):006:0> r = "bobo" => "bobo" irb(main):007:0> puts r bobo => nil irb(main):008:0> t = :bobo => :bobo irb(main):009:0> puts t bobo => nil irb(main):010:0> puts r == t false => nil irb(main):011:0> s = "bobo" => "bobo" irb(main):012:0> puts r == s true => nil

"bobo" string whereas :bobo symbol.

:bobo.class # => symbol "bobo".class # => string

string#==

if obj not string, returns false. otherwise, returns true if str <=> obj returns zero.

so according documentation "bobo" == :bobo # => false , "bobo" == "bobo" # => true. - expected.

puts :bobo  # >> bobo :bobo.to_s # => "bobo"

this because puts applying to_s on symbol object :bobo. see symbol#to_s

asp.net mvc - breakpoint on javascript in CSHTML? -

-
i have .cshtml file has javascript tag. within script tag have few lines of javascript. first line of javascript refers property in @viewbag. other javascript lines plain script without mvc related references. observation: can place breakpoints (visual studio 2015) on each of these javascript lines. however, breakpoints has white dot in center of breakpoint symbol (red circle) except line @viewbag reference (this particular line not have white dot in center). it seems breakpoint without white dot hit during run-time. question: can explain going on here? white dot mean? why plain red breakpoint line line hitting breakpoint? the visual studio debugger expecting debug actual server-side code within .cshtml file opposed client-side javascript within it. iirc, visual studio allow debug javascript code expected in internet explorer (and possibly edge), other browsers want use either third-party tool or developer tools (f12) within browser. an easy approach take advant...
