syntax error, unexpected tIDENTIFIER, expecting keyword_end after refactoring IF/ELSE

Question

I refactored this code:

if @data.class == Fixnum
  bin_num = @data.to_s(2)
else
  return results
end

To this:

@data.class == Fixnum ? bin_num = @data.to_s(2) : return results

And my program is getting the error in the title. Am I missing something?

Answer 1

You can use this

return results unless @data.class == Fixnum
bin_num = @data.to_s(2)

Answer 2

try

bin_num = @data.to_s(2) if @data.class == Fixnum or return results
