true | object → true

static VALUE
true_or(VALUE obj, VALUE obj2)
{
    return Qtrue;
}

Returns true:

Example

true | Object.new # => true
true | false      # => true
true | nil        # => true

Argument object is evaluated. This is different from true with the short-circuit operator, whose operand is evaluated only if necessary:

Example

true | raise # => Raises RuntimeError.
true || raise # => true
