Iterates over each key-value pair in the database.
If no block is given, returns an Enumerator
.
This returns the value that scan_until
would return, without advancing the scan pointer. The match register is affected, though.
s = StringScanner.new("Fri Dec 12 1975 14:39") s.check_until /12/ # -> "Fri Dec 12" s.pos # -> 0 s.matched # -> 12
Mnemonic: it “checks” to see whether a scan_until
will return a value.
Scans the string until the pattern
is matched. Advances the scan pointer if advance_pointer_p
, otherwise not. Returns the matched string if return_string_p
is true, otherwise returns the number of bytes advanced. This method does affect the match register.
Returns the size of the most recent match (see matched
), or nil
if there was no recent match.
s = StringScanner.new('test string') s.check /\w+/ # -> "test" s.matched_size # -> 4 s.check /\d+/ # -> nil s.matched_size # -> nil
Return the pre-match
(in the regular expression sense) of the last scan.s = StringScanner.new('test string') s.scan(/\w+/) # -> "test" s.scan(/\s+/) # -> " " s.pre_match # -> "test" s.post_match # -> "string"
Return the post-match
(in the regular expression sense) of the last scan.s = StringScanner.new('test string') s.scan(/\w+/) # -> "test" s.scan(/\s+/) # -> " " s.pre_match # -> "test" s.post_match # -> "string"
Calls block once for each key in hsh, passing the value as a parameter.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
h = { "a" => 100, "b" => 200 } h.each_value {|value| puts value }
produces:
100 200
Calls block once for each key in hsh, passing the key as a parameter.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
h = { "a" => 100, "b" => 200 } h.each_key {|key| puts key }
produces:
a b
Calls block once for each key in hsh, passing the key-value pair as parameters.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
h = { "a" => 100, "b" => 200 } h.each {|key, value| puts "#{key} is #{value}" }
produces:
a is 100 b is 200
Returns an array containing the values associated with the given keys but also raises KeyError
when one of keys can’t be found. Also see Hash#values_at
and Hash#fetch
.
h = { "cat" => "feline", "dog" => "canine", "cow" => "bovine" } h.fetch_values("cow", "cat") #=> ["bovine", "feline"] h.fetch_values("cow", "bird") # raises KeyError h.fetch_values("cow", "bird") { |k| k.upcase } #=> ["bovine", "BIRD"]
Yields each environment variable name
and value
.
If no block is given an Enumerator
is returned.
Yields each environment variable name.
An Enumerator
is returned if no block is given.
Yields each environment variable value
.
An Enumerator
is returned if no block was given.
Return the accept character set for all new CGI
instances.
‘each_option’ is an alias of ‘each’.
Creates an OptionParser::Switch
from the parameters. The parsed argument value is passed to the given block, where it can be processed.
See at the beginning of OptionParser
for some full examples.
opts
can include the following elements:
One of the following:
:NONE, :REQUIRED, :OPTIONAL
Acceptable option argument format, must be pre-defined with OptionParser.accept
or OptionParser#accept
, or Regexp
. This can appear once or assigned as String if not present, otherwise causes an ArgumentError
. Examples:
Float, Time, Array
Hash
or Array.
[:text, :binary, :auto] %w[iso-2022-jp shift_jis euc-jp utf8 binary] { "jis" => "iso-2022-jp", "sjis" => "shift_jis" }
Specifies a long style switch which takes a mandatory, optional or no argument. It’s a string of the following form:
"--switch=MANDATORY" or "--switch MANDATORY" "--switch[=OPTIONAL]" "--switch"
Specifies short style switch which takes a mandatory, optional or no argument. It’s a string of the following form:
"-xMANDATORY" "-x[OPTIONAL]" "-x"
There is also a special form which matches character range (not full set of regular expression):
"-[a-z]MANDATORY" "-[a-z][OPTIONAL]" "-[a-z]"
Instead of specifying mandatory or optional arguments directly in the switch parameter, this separate parameter can be used.
"=MANDATORY" "=[OPTIONAL]"
Description string for the option.
"Run verbosely"
Handler for the parsed argument value. Either give a block or pass a Proc
or Method
as an argument.
