Invalid octal digit error in Ruby, how do I by pass that? I have a number, 0962833
, which I need to send to an API but I can't send it since I get this invalid octal digit error.
I need a work around for that without turning that number into a string, the zero can't be removed, it's a must.
Octal numbers use the digits 0 to 7. Maybe the error could be the digit 9, and digit 8 in your number. If you want to pass the number '962833', try converting it first to a correct octal number with an online converter. Then add the leading '0' and pass it to your function.
