Looks up the first IP address for name.

Looks up all IP address for name.

Looks up the first IP address for name.

Looks up all IP address for name.

Replaces the elements with ones returned by collect().

Sends the given signal to the given job

Basically the same as ::new. However, if class Thread is subclassed, then calling start in that subclass will not invoke the subclass’s initialize method.

Causes the given thread to exit, see also Thread::exit.

count = 0
a = Thread.new { loop { count += 1 } }
sleep(0.1)       #=> 0
Thread.kill(a)   #=> #<Thread:0x401b3d30 dead>
count            #=> 93947
a.alive?         #=> false

Waits for thr to complete, using join, and returns its value or raises the exception which terminated the thread.

a = Thread.new { 2 + 2 }
a.value   #=> 4

b = Thread.new { raise 'something went wrong' }
b.value   #=> RuntimeError: something went wrong

Terminates thr and schedules another thread to be run.

If this thread is already marked to be killed, exit returns the Thread.

If this is the main thread, or the last thread, exits the process.

Returns the status of thr.

"sleep"

Returned if this thread is sleeping or waiting on I/O

"run"

When this thread is executing

"aborting"

If this thread is aborting

false

When this thread is terminated normally

nil

If terminated with an exception.

a = Thread.new { raise("die now") }
b = Thread.new { Thread.stop }
c = Thread.new { Thread.exit }
d = Thread.new { sleep }
d.kill                  #=> #<Thread:0x401b3678 aborting>
a.status                #=> nil
b.status                #=> "sleep"
c.status                #=> false
d.status                #=> "aborting"
Thread.current.status   #=> "run"

Returns true if thr is running or sleeping.

thr = Thread.new { }
thr.join                #=> #<Thread:0x401b3fb0 dead>
Thread.current.alive?   #=> true
thr.alive?              #=> false

Evaluates the Ruby expression(s) in string, in the binding’s context. If the optional filename and lineno parameters are present, they will be used when reporting syntax errors.

def get_binding(param)
  binding
end
b = get_binding("hello")
b.eval("param")   #=> "hello"

Return the tag object which was called for.

Return the return value which was called for.

Returns internal information of TracePoint.

The contents of the returned value are implementation specific. It may be changed in future.

This method is only for debugging TracePoint itself.

Returns x/y;

Rational(1, 2)   #=> (1/2)
Rational('1/2')  #=> (1/2)
Rational(nil)    #=> TypeError
Rational(1, nil) #=> TypeError

Syntax of string form:

string form = extra spaces , rational , extra spaces ;
rational = [ sign ] , unsigned rational ;
unsigned rational = numerator | numerator , "/" , denominator ;
numerator = integer part | fractional part | integer part , fractional part ;
denominator = digits ;
integer part = digits ;
fractional part = "." , digits , [ ( "e" | "E" ) , [ sign ] , digits ] ;
sign = "-" | "+" ;
digits = digit , { digit | "_" , digit } ;
digit = "0" | "1" | "2" | "3" | "4" | "5" | "6" | "7" | "8" | "9" ;
extra spaces = ? \s* ? ;

See String#to_r.

Evaluates the Ruby expression(s) in string. If binding is given, which must be a Binding object, the evaluation is performed in its context. If the optional filename and lineno parameters are present, they will be used when reporting syntax errors.

def get_binding(str)
  return binding
end
str = "hello"
eval "str + ' Fred'"                      #=> "hello Fred"
eval "str + ' Fred'", get_binding("bye")  #=> "bye Fred"

Returns a new array with the results of running block once for every element in enum.

If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.

(1..4).map { |i| i*i }      #=> [1, 4, 9, 16]
(1..4).collect { "cat"  }   #=> ["cat", "cat", "cat", "cat"]

Returns first n elements from enum.

a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 0]
a.take(3)             #=> [1, 2, 3]
a.take(30)            #=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 0]

Computes the arctangent of decimal to the specified number of digits of precision, numeric.

If decimal is NaN, returns NaN.

BigMath.atan(BigDecimal.new('-1'), 16).to_s
#=> "-0.785398163397448309615660845819878471907514682065E0"

Determines the equality of two numbers by comparing to zero, or using the epsilon value

Enables coverage measurement.
