01The signal

The report, exactly as it was filed.

Nothing paraphrased or cleaned up. The mess is the thing under test.

URI.js#223 · as filedcommit fc63b02

.segmentCoded([…]) does not encode slashes

The problem lies with this usage:

```
> URI("/").segmentCoded(["fo/o", "bar"]).toString()
"/fo/o/bar"
```

I would have expected it to behave as:

```
> URI("/").segmentCoded(["fo/o", "bar"]).toString()
"/fo%2Fo/bar"
```

Interesting it's fine when _not_ using an array argument, and instead using multiple invocations:

```
URI("/").segmentCoded("fo/o").segmentCoded("bar").toString()
"/fo%2Fo/bar"
```

02What counts as reproducing it

The bar, written down before the run.

expected.reportedFailurecommitted with the case
Symptom
URI("/").segmentCoded(["fo/o", "bar"]).toString() produces '/fo/o/bar'; the fix makes it produce '/fo%2Fo/bar'.
Expression
URI("/").segmentCoded(["fo/o", "bar"]).toString()
Reported output
"/fo/o/bar"
Where that came from
Read mechanically from the report's fenced code, REPL form: `> URI("/").segmentCoded(["fo/o", "bar"]).toString() "/fo/o/bar"`.

03What happened

The live run reproduced the reported failure.

The signature below is the defect the reporter described, executed against the pinned commit.
