It’s either going to be 58 or 63, is my guess before IRB.

It’s pretty clear to see that this will return ??(63) without looking
further
into the structure of the code, but let’s take a closer look at the
order in
which the ternaries are executed anyway:
a = ?? ? (??) : (?? ? (?? ? ?? : ??) : (?? ? ?? : ??))
So we have:
if 63
63
else
if 63
if 63
63
else
63
end
else
if 63
63
else
63
end
end
end
Result: 63
