Otherwise, returns an array with both <em>aNumeric</em> and <em>num</em> represented as <tt>Float</tt> objects. This coercion mechanism is used by Ruby to handle mixed-type numeric operations: it is intended to find a compatible common type between the two operands of the operator." - !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::VERB body: " 1.coerce(2.5) #=> [2.5, 1.0]\n 1.2.coerce(3) #=> [3.0, 1.2]\n 1.coerce(2) #=> [2, 1]\n" full_name: Numeric#coerce is_singleton: false name: coerce params: | num.coerce(numeric) => array visibility: public
