Parentheses vs Block

[rahuldesarda]

On Page 171, on the top of the page, #1 Template, Parentheses are used to indicate that the enclosed variables must be placed in the consecutive spaces in some order. What if we use a Block for that purpose?

Hi Rahul,

Thanks for the question! You certainly could use that notation there; as long as you know the intent is for a set of variables to go in some order over those spaces, how you represent it isn't critical. I don't use the block in these case because then sometimes you then get a "block inside a block" which is a bit unwieldy, but it can be used in this particular instance without an issue.

Thanks!
