# NEWS for Ruby 3.1.0
This document is a list of user visible feature changes
since the **3.0.0** release, except for bug fixes.
Note that each entry is kept to a minimum, see links for details.
## Language changes
* Pin operator now takes an expression. [[Feature #17411]]
```ruby
Prime.each_cons(2).lazy.find_all{_1 in [n, ^(n + 2)]}.take(3).to_a
#=> [[3, 5], [5, 7], [11, 13]]
```
* Multiple assignment evaluation order has been made consistent with
single assignment evaluation order. With single assignment, Ruby
uses a left-to-right evaluation order. With this code:
```ruby
foo[0] = bar
```
The following evaluation order is used:
1. `foo`
2. `bar`
3. `[]=` called on the result of `foo`
In Ruby before 3.1.0, multiple assignment did not follow this
evaluation order. With this code:
```ruby
foo[0], bar.baz = a, b
```
Versions of Ruby before 3.1.0 would evaluate in the following
order
1. `a`
2. `b`
3. `foo`
4. `[]=` called on the result of `foo`
5. `bar`
6. `baz=` called on the result of `bar`
Starting in Ruby 3.1.0, evaluation order is now consistent with
single assignment, with the left hand side being evaluated before
the right hand side:
1. `foo`
2. `bar`
3. `a`
4. `b`
5. `[]=` called on the result of `foo`
6. `baz=` called on the result of `bar`
[[Bug #4443]]
## Command line options
## Core classes updates
Outstanding ones only.
* Array
* Array#intersect? is added. [[Feature #15198]]
* Enumerable
* Enumerable#compact is added. [[Feature #17312]]
* Enumerable#tally now accepts an optional hash to count. [[Feature #17744]]
* Enumerator::Lazy
* Enumerator::Lazy#compact is added. [[Feature #17312]]
* File
* File.dirname now accepts an optional argument for the level to
strip path components. [[Feature #12194]]
* Module
* Module#prepend now modifies the ancestor chain if the receiver
already includes the argument. Module#prepend still does not
modify the ancestor chain if the receiver has already prepended
the argument. [[Bug #17423]]
* Struct
* Passing only keyword arguments to Struct#initialize is warned.
You need to use a Hash literal to set a Hash to a first member.
[[Feature #16806]]
* Queue
* Queue#initialize now accepts an Enumerable of initial values.
[[Feature #17327]]
* Thread::Backtrace
* Thread::Backtrace.limit, which returns the value to limit backtrace
length set by `--backtracse-limit` command line option, is added.
[[Feature #17479]]
* $LOAD_PATH
* $LOAD_PATH.resolve_feature_path does not raise. [[Feature #16043]]
## Stdlib updates
Outstanding ones only.
## Compatibility issues
Excluding feature bug fixes.
## Stdlib compatibility issues
* `ERB#initialize` warns `safe_level` and later arguments even without -w.
[[Feature #14256]]
## C API updates
## Implementation improvements
### JIT
* `RubyVM::MJIT` is renamed to `RubyVM::JIT`.
## Static analysis
### RBS
### TypeProf
## Miscellaneous changes
* lib/objspace/trace.rb is added, which is a tool for tracing the object
allocation. Just by requiring this file, tracing is started *immediately*.
Just by `Kernel#p`, you can investigate where an object was created.
Note that just requiring this file brings a large performance overhead.
This is only for debugging purpose. Do not use this in production.
