To space or not to space ".add_circle[@entity[0]...."

[honoluludesktop]

Why would no space as below between .add_circle[@entity[0].... error:

group = @master_group.entities.add_circle[@entity[0], @entity[1], @entity[2]], @vector3, @entity[3]

,but be OK with space between .add_circle[@entity [0].... as below:

group = @master_group.entities.add_circle [@entity[0], @entity[1], @entity[2]], @vector3, @entity[3]?

Yet, isn't .add_face([@entity[0]..... as below recommended?

group = @block_group.entities.add_face([@entity[0],@entity[1],@entity[2]],[@entity[3],@entity[4],@entity[5]],[@entity[6],@entity[7],@entity[8]],[@entity[9],@entity[10],@entity[11]])

That is invalid syntax.

You have a [ bracket right up to the method name.

[ and ( is not the same. ( and ) close off the arguments you pass to a method, but they are optional - you can leave a space between the method name and the arguments.

.method([val1,val2], argument2) OK
.method [val1,val2], argument2 OK
.method[val1,val2], argument2 Invalid!

Personally I always wrap arguments in ( and ) as I find the code easier to read and less ambiguous.

OK, thanks.
