Ruby: else without rescue is useless
It looks like the else block is not part of an if statement. Am I correct in assuming you want it to provide an alternative path when if @@counter > 0 is false? If so, get rid of the end that's on the line above the else, e.g.:
if @@Counter > 0 # ... processing ...else # ... alternative processing ...end
To clarify: else is the warning is intended as below:
def my_method if rand >= 0.5 raise endrescue puts "ERROR!!!"else puts "Cool"endIf you prematurely close the if statement, it's likely that the else will be interpreted as the else in the code above. So having an else statement without the rescue is useless, because you can simply write your method like this:
def my_method if rand >= 0.5 raise end puts "Cool"endEither rescue is executed, or else is executed, never both.
