`Range#max` returns the elements in greater order. I think it should be `[10, 9]`, and `(..10).last(2)` should return `[9, 10]` without an exception too. https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/12879 ---------------------------------------- Bug #21174: Range#max called with an argument on a beginless Integer Range raises RangeError https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/21174#change-112209 * Author: andrykonchin (Andrew Konchin) * Status: Open * ruby -v: 3.4.2 * Backport: 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN, 3.4: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- It seems surprising but instead of returning last `n` Integers `Range#max(n)` raises `RangeError`: ```ruby (nil..10).max(2) # => (irb):3:in 'Range#max': cannot get the maximum of beginless range with custom comparison method (RangeError) ``` I would expect `[9, 10]` to be returned. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
