  !blank?
end

#try(*a, &b) ⇒ Object

Note:

‘try` is defined on `Object`. Therefore, it won’t work with instances

Invokes the public method whose name goes as first argument just like ‘public_send` does, except that if the receiver does not respond to it the call returns `nil` rather than raising an exception.

of classes that do not have ‘Object` among their ancestors, like direct subclasses of `BasicObject`.

def try(*a, &b)
  try!(*a, &b) if a.empty? || respond_to?(a.first)
end

#try!(*a, &b) ⇒ Object

Same as #try, but will raise a NoMethodError exception if the receiver is not ‘nil` and does not implement the tried method.

Raises:

  • NoMethodError If the receiver is not ‘nil` and does not implement the tried method.
