Returns information about the most recent garbage collection.
Generate URL-encoded form data from given enum.
This generates application/x-www-form-urlencoded data defined in HTML5 from given an Enumerable object.
This internally uses URI.encode_www_form_component(str).
This method doesn’t convert the encoding of given items, so convert them before call this method if you want to send data as other than original encoding or mixed encoding data. (Strings which are encoded in an HTML5 ASCII incompatible encoding are converted to UTF-8.)
This method doesn’t handle files. When you send a file, use multipart/form-data.
This refers url.spec.whatwg.org/#concept-urlencoded-serializer
URI.encode_www_form([["q", "ruby"], ["lang", "en"]]) #=> "q=ruby&lang=en" URI.encode_www_form("q" => "ruby", "lang" => "en") #=> "q=ruby&lang=en" URI.encode_www_form("q" => ["ruby", "perl"], "lang" => "en") #=> "q=ruby&q=perl&lang=en" URI.encode_www_form([["q", "ruby"], ["q", "perl"], ["lang", "en"]]) #=> "q=ruby&q=perl&lang=en"
Decode URL-encoded form data from given str.
This decodes application/x-www-form-urlencoded data and returns array of key-value array.
This refers url.spec.whatwg.org/#concept-urlencoded-parser , so this supports only &-separator, don’t support ;-separator.
ary = URI.decode_www_form("a=1&a=2&b=3") p ary #=> [['a', '1'], ['a', '2'], ['b', '3']] p ary.assoc('a').last #=> '1' p ary.assoc('b').last #=> '3' p ary.rassoc('a').last #=> '2' p Hash[ary] # => {"a"=>"2", "b"=>"3"}
Returns a list of paths matching glob from the latest gems that can be used by a gem to pick up features from other gems. For example:
Gem.find_latest_files('rdoc/discover').each do |path| load path end
if check_load_path is true (the default), then find_latest_files also searches $LOAD_PATH for files as well as gems.
Unlike find_files, find_latest_files will return only files from the latest version of a gem.
The file name and line number of the caller of the caller of this method.
Returns the latest release-version specification for the gem name.
Find all ‘rubygems_plugin’ files in $LOAD_PATH and load them
@param [String] requirement_name the spec name to search for @return [Object] the locked spec named ‘requirement_name`, if one
is found on {#base}
Returns the previous representable floating-point number.
(-Float::MAX).prev_float and (-Float::INFINITY).prev_float is -Float::INFINITY.
Float::NAN.prev_float is Float::NAN.
For example:
p 0.01.prev_float #=> 0.009999999999999998 p 1.0.prev_float #=> 0.9999999999999999 p 100.0.prev_float #=> 99.99999999999999 p 0.01 - 0.01.prev_float #=> 1.734723475976807e-18 p 1.0 - 1.0.prev_float #=> 1.1102230246251565e-16 p 100.0 - 100.0.prev_float #=> 1.4210854715202004e-14 f = 0.01; 20.times { printf "%-20a %s\n", f, f.to_s; f = f.prev_float } #=> 0x1.47ae147ae147bp-7 0.01 # 0x1.47ae147ae147ap-7 0.009999999999999998 # 0x1.47ae147ae1479p-7 0.009999999999999997 # 0x1.47ae147ae1478p-7 0.009999999999999995 # 0x1.47ae147ae1477p-7 0.009999999999999993 # 0x1.47ae147ae1476p-7 0.009999999999999992 # 0x1.47ae147ae1475p-7 0.00999999999999999 # 0x1.47ae147ae1474p-7 0.009999999999999988 # 0x1.47ae147ae1473p-7 0.009999999999999986 # 0x1.47ae147ae1472p-7 0.009999999999999985 # 0x1.47ae147ae1471p-7 0.009999999999999983 # 0x1.47ae147ae147p-7 0.009999999999999981 # 0x1.47ae147ae146fp-7 0.00999999999999998 # 0x1.47ae147ae146ep-7 0.009999999999999978 # 0x1.47ae147ae146dp-7 0.009999999999999976 # 0x1.47ae147ae146cp-7 0.009999999999999974 # 0x1.47ae147ae146bp-7 0.009999999999999972 # 0x1.47ae147ae146ap-7 0.00999999999999997 # 0x1.47ae147ae1469p-7 0.009999999999999969 # 0x1.47ae147ae1468p-7 0.009999999999999967
If file_name is readable by others, returns an integer representing the file permission bits of file_name. Returns nil otherwise. The meaning of the bits is platform dependent; on Unix systems, see stat(2).
file_name can be an IO object.
File.world_readable?("/etc/passwd") #=> 420 m = File.world_readable?("/etc/passwd") sprintf("%o", m) #=> "644"
Returns true if the named file is writable by the real user and group id of this process. See access(3)
Returns true if the named file is executable by the real user and group id of this process. See access(3).
When this module is included in another, Ruby calls append_features in this module, passing it the receiving module in mod. Ruby’s default implementation is to add the constants, methods, and module variables of this module to mod if this module has not already been added to mod or one of its ancestors. See also Module#include.
Returns the list of modules included in mod.
module Mixin end module Outer include Mixin end Mixin.included_modules #=> [] Outer.included_modules #=> [Mixin]
Creates instance variables and corresponding methods that return the value of each instance variable. Equivalent to calling “attr:name” on each name in turn. String arguments are converted to symbols.
Evaluates the given block in the context of the class/module. The method defined in the block will belong to the receiver. Any arguments passed to the method will be passed to the block. This can be used if the block needs to access instance variables.
class Thing end Thing.class_exec{ def hello() "Hello there!" end } puts Thing.new.hello()
produces:
Hello there!
Evaluates the string or block in the context of mod, except that when a block is given, constant/class variable lookup is not affected. This can be used to add methods to a class. module_eval returns the result of evaluating its argument. The optional filename and lineno parameters set the text for error messages.
class Thing end a = %q{def hello() "Hello there!" end} Thing.module_eval(a) puts Thing.new.hello() Thing.module_eval("invalid code", "dummy", 123)
produces:
Hello there!
dummy:123:in `module_eval': undefined local variable
or method `code' for Thing:Class
Execute the provided block, but preserve the precision limit
BigDecimal.limit(100) puts BigDecimal.limit BigDecimal.save_limit do BigDecimal.limit(200) puts BigDecimal.limit end puts BigDecimal.limit
Returns true if the given year is a leap year of the proleptic Gregorian calendar.
Date.gregorian_leap?(1900) #=> false Date.gregorian_leap?(2000) #=> true
This method is equivalent to d - n.
This method is equivalent to d << (n * 12)
