Returns the angle part of its polar form.
Complex.polar(3, Math::PI/2).arg #=> 1.5707963267948966
Returns the denominator (lcm of both denominator - real and imag).
See numerator.
Returns the value as a string for inspection.
Complex(2).inspect #=> "(2+0i)" Complex('-8/6').inspect #=> "((-4/3)+0i)" Complex('1/2i').inspect #=> "(0+(1/2)*i)" Complex(0, Float::INFINITY).inspect #=> "(0+Infinity*i)" Complex(Float::NAN, Float::NAN).inspect #=> "(NaN+NaN*i)"
Always returns the string “nil”.
Returns zero.
Returns 0 if the value is positive, pi otherwise.
Returns an array; [num, 0].
Returns true if num is an Integer (including Fixnum and Bignum).
(1.0).integer? #=> false (1).integer? #=> true
Returns num truncated to an Integer.
Numeric implements this by converting its value to a Float and invoking Float#truncate.
Invokes the given block with the sequence of numbers starting at num, incremented by step (defaulted to 1) on each call.
The loop finishes when the value to be passed to the block is greater than limit (if step is positive) or less than limit (if step is negative), where limit is defaulted to infinity.
In the recommended keyword argument style, either or both of step and limit (default infinity) can be omitted. In the fixed position argument style, zero as a step (i.e. num.step(limit, 0)) is not allowed for historical compatibility reasons.
If all the arguments are integers, the loop operates using an integer counter.
If any of the arguments are floating point numbers, all are converted to floats, and the loop is executed the following expression:
floor(n + n*epsilon)+ 1
Where the n is the following:
n = (limit - num)/step
Otherwise, the loop starts at num, uses either the less-than (<) or greater-than (>) operator to compare the counter against limit, and increments itself using the + operator.
If no block is given, an Enumerator is returned instead.
For example:
p 1.step.take(4) p 10.step(by: -1).take(4) 3.step(to: 5) { |i| print i, " " } 1.step(10, 2) { |i| print i, " " } Math::E.step(to: Math::PI, by: 0.2) { |f| print f, " " }
Will produce:
[1, 2, 3, 4] [10, 9, 8, 7] 3 4 5 1 3 5 7 9 2.71828182845905 2.91828182845905 3.11828182845905
Returns the denominator (always positive).
Returns 0 if the value is positive, pi otherwise.
Returns true if float is a valid IEEE floating point number (it is not infinite, and Float#nan? is false).
Returns a string containing a representation of self. As well as a fixed or exponential form of the float, the call may return NaN, Infinity, and -Infinity.
Returns the denominator (always positive). The result is machine dependent.
See numerator.
Transfer control to another fiber, resuming it from where it last stopped or starting it if it was not resumed before. The calling fiber will be suspended much like in a call to Fiber.yield. You need to require 'fiber' before using this method.
The fiber which receives the transfer call is treats it much like a resume call. Arguments passed to transfer are treated like those passed to resume.
You cannot resume a fiber that transferred control to another one. This will cause a double resume error. You need to transfer control back to this fiber before it can yield and resume.
Example:
fiber1 = Fiber.new do puts "In Fiber 1" Fiber.yield end fiber2 = Fiber.new do puts "In Fiber 2" fiber1.transfer puts "Never see this message" end fiber3 = Fiber.new do puts "In Fiber 3" end fiber2.resume fiber3.resume
produces
In fiber 2 In fiber 1 In fiber 3
Return a string describing this Dir object.
Repositions dir to the first entry.
d = Dir.new("testdir") d.read #=> "." d.rewind #=> #<Dir:0x401b3fb0> d.read #=> "."
Deletes the named directory. Raises a subclass of SystemCallError if the directory isn’t empty.
Returns true if the named file is a directory, false otherwise.
Deprecated method. Don’t use.
Returns a File::Stat object for the named file (see File::Stat).
File.stat("testfile").mtime #=> Tue Apr 08 12:58:04 CDT 2003
