Verifies each certificate in chain has signed the following certificate and is valid for the given time.
Tries to return the element at position index, but throws an IndexError exception if the referenced index lies outside of the array bounds. This error can be prevented by supplying a second argument, which will act as a default value.
Alternatively, if a block is given it will only be executed when an invalid index is referenced. Negative values of index count from the end of the array.
a = [ 11, 22, 33, 44 ] a.fetch(1) #=> 22 a.fetch(-1) #=> 44 a.fetch(4, 'cat') #=> "cat" a.fetch(100) { |i| puts "#{i} is out of bounds" } #=> "100 is out of bounds"
Calls the given block once for each element in self, passing that element as a parameter. Returns the array itself.
If no block is given, an Enumerator is returned.
a = [ "a", "b", "c" ] a.each {|x| print x, " -- " }
produces:
a -- b -- c --
By using binary search, finds a value from this array which meets the given condition in O(log n) where n is the size of the array.
You can use this method in two use cases: a find-minimum mode and a find-any mode. In either case, the elements of the array must be monotone (or sorted) with respect to the block.
In find-minimum mode (this is a good choice for typical use case), the block must return true or false, and there must be an index i (0 <= i <= ary.size) so that:
the block returns false for any element whose index is less than i, and
the block returns true for any element whose index is greater than or equal to i.
This method returns the i-th element. If i is equal to ary.size, it returns nil.
ary = [0, 4, 7, 10, 12] ary.bsearch {|x| x >= 4 } #=> 4 ary.bsearch {|x| x >= 6 } #=> 7 ary.bsearch {|x| x >= -1 } #=> 0 ary.bsearch {|x| x >= 100 } #=> nil
In find-any mode (this behaves like libc’s bsearch(3)), the block must return a number, and there must be two indices i and j (0 <= i <= j <= ary.size) so that:
the block returns a positive number for ary if 0 <= k < i,
the block returns zero for ary if i <= k < j, and
the block returns a negative number for ary if j <= k < ary.size.
Under this condition, this method returns any element whose index is within i…j. If i is equal to j (i.e., there is no element that satisfies the block), this method returns nil.
ary = [0, 4, 7, 10, 12] # try to find v such that 4 <= v < 8 ary.bsearch {|x| 1 - x / 4 } #=> 4 or 7 # try to find v such that 8 <= v < 10 ary.bsearch {|x| 4 - x / 2 } #=> nil
You must not mix the two modes at a time; the block must always return either true/false, or always return a number. It is undefined which value is actually picked up at each iteration.
Converts pattern to a Regexp (if it isn’t already one), then invokes its match method on str. If the second parameter is present, it specifies the position in the string to begin the search.
'hello'.match('(.)\1') #=> #<MatchData "ll" 1:"l"> 'hello'.match('(.)\1')[0] #=> "ll" 'hello'.match(/(.)\1/)[0] #=> "ll" 'hello'.match('xx') #=> nil
If a block is given, invoke the block with MatchData if match succeed, so that you can write
str.match(pat) {|m| ...}
instead of
if m = str.match(pat) ... end
The return value is a value from block execution in this case.
Returns an array of characters in str. This is a shorthand for str.each_char.to_a.
If a block is given, which is a deprecated form, works the same as each_char.
Returns a new String with the last character removed. If the string ends with \r\n, both characters are removed. Applying chop to an empty string returns an empty string. String#chomp is often a safer alternative, as it leaves the string unchanged if it doesn’t end in a record separator.
"string\r\n".chop #=> "string" "string\n\r".chop #=> "string\n" "string\n".chop #=> "string" "string".chop #=> "strin" "x".chop.chop #=> ""
Returns a new String with the given record separator removed from the end of str (if present). If $/ has not been changed from the default Ruby record separator, then chomp also removes carriage return characters (that is it will remove \n, \r, and \r\n). If $/ is an empty string, it will remove all trailing newlines from the string.
"hello".chomp #=> "hello" "hello\n".chomp #=> "hello" "hello\r\n".chomp #=> "hello" "hello\n\r".chomp #=> "hello\n" "hello\r".chomp #=> "hello" "hello \n there".chomp #=> "hello \n there" "hello".chomp("llo") #=> "he" "hello\r\n\r\n".chomp('') #=> "hello" "hello\r\n\r\r\n".chomp('') #=> "hello\r\n\r"
Processes str as for String#chop, returning str, or nil if str is the empty string. See also String#chomp!.
