Simple deprecation method that deprecates name
by wrapping it up in a dummy method. It warns on each call to the dummy method telling the user of repl
(unless repl
is :none) and the year/month that it is planned to go away.
Is local fetching enabled?
Is code
an error status?
Is code
an error status?
Called roughly every {#progress_rate}, this method should convey progress to the user.
@return [void]
How often progress should be conveyed to the user via {#indicate_progress}, in seconds. A third of a second, by default.
@return [Float]
Drops elements up to, but not including, the first element for which the block returns nil
or false
and returns an array containing the remaining elements.
If no block is given, an Enumerator
is returned instead.
See also Array#take_while
a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 0] a.drop_while {|i| i < 3 } #=> [3, 4, 5, 0]
Scans the current string until the match is exhausted yielding each match as it is encountered in the string. A block is not necessary as the results will simply be aggregated into the final array.
"123 456".block_scanf("%d") # => [123, 456]
If a block is given, the value from that is returned from the yield is added to an output array.
"123 456".block_scanf("%d) do |digit,| # the ',' unpacks the Array digit + 100 end # => [223, 556]
See Scanf
for details on creating a format string.
You will need to require ‘scanf’ to use String#block_scanf
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
Returns the locale charmap name. It returns nil if no appropriate information.
Debian GNU/Linux LANG=C Encoding.locale_charmap #=> "ANSI_X3.4-1968" LANG=ja_JP.EUC-JP Encoding.locale_charmap #=> "EUC-JP" SunOS 5 LANG=C Encoding.locale_charmap #=> "646" LANG=ja Encoding.locale_charmap #=> "eucJP"
The result is highly platform dependent. So Encoding.find(Encoding.locale_charmap)
may cause an error. If you need some encoding object even for unknown locale, Encoding.find
(“locale”) can be used.
Returns the list of private methods accessible to obj. If the all parameter is set to false
, only those methods in the receiver will be listed.
Returns any backtrace associated with the exception. This method is similar to Exception#backtrace
, but the backtrace is an array of
Thread::Backtrace::Location.
Now, this method is not affected by Exception#set_backtrace()
.
Return a list of the local variable names defined where this NameError
exception was raised.
Internal use only.
When this module is prepended in another, Ruby calls prepend_features
in this module, passing it the receiving module in mod. Ruby’s default implementation is to overlay 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#prepend
.
Makes a list of existing constants private.
Returns the factorization of self
.
See Prime#prime_division
for more details.
Iterates the given block over all prime numbers.
See Prime
#each for more details.
This method is equivalent to d - n.
This method is equivalent to d << n
This method is equivalent to d << (n * 12)
Reads at most maxlen bytes from ios using the read(2) system call after O_NONBLOCK is set for the underlying file descriptor.
If the optional outbuf argument is present, it must reference a String, which will receive the data. The outbuf will contain only the received data after the method call even if it is not empty at the beginning.
read_nonblock
just calls the read(2) system call. It causes all errors the read(2) system call causes: Errno::EWOULDBLOCK, Errno::EINTR, etc. The caller should care such errors.
If the exception is Errno::EWOULDBLOCK or Errno::EAGAIN, it is extended by IO::WaitReadable
. So IO::WaitReadable
can be used to rescue the exceptions for retrying read_nonblock.
read_nonblock
causes EOFError
on EOF.
If the read byte buffer is not empty, read_nonblock
reads from the buffer like readpartial. In this case, the read(2) system call is not called.
When read_nonblock
raises an exception kind of IO::WaitReadable
, read_nonblock
should not be called until io is readable for avoiding busy loop. This can be done as follows.
# emulates blocking read (readpartial). begin result = io.read_nonblock(maxlen) rescue IO::WaitReadable IO.select([io]) retry end
Although IO#read_nonblock
doesn’t raise IO::WaitWritable
. OpenSSL::Buffering#read_nonblock
can raise IO::WaitWritable
. If IO
and SSL should be used polymorphically, IO::WaitWritable
should be rescued too. See the document of OpenSSL::Buffering#read_nonblock
for sample code.
Note that this method is identical to readpartial except the non-blocking flag is set.
By specifying ‘exception: false`, the options hash allows you to indicate that read_nonblock
should not raise an IO::WaitReadable
exception, but return the symbol :wait_readable instead.
Writes the given string to ios using the write(2) system call after O_NONBLOCK is set for the underlying file descriptor.
It returns the number of bytes written.
write_nonblock
just calls the write(2) system call. It causes all errors the write(2) system call causes: Errno::EWOULDBLOCK, Errno::EINTR, etc. The result may also be smaller than string.length (partial write). The caller should care such errors and partial write.
If the exception is Errno::EWOULDBLOCK or Errno::EAGAIN, it is extended by IO::WaitWritable
. So IO::WaitWritable
can be used to rescue the exceptions for retrying write_nonblock.
# Creates a pipe. r, w = IO.pipe # write_nonblock writes only 65536 bytes and return 65536. # (The pipe size is 65536 bytes on this environment.) s = "a" #100000 p w.write_nonblock(s) #=> 65536 # write_nonblock cannot write a byte and raise EWOULDBLOCK (EAGAIN). p w.write_nonblock("b") # Resource temporarily unavailable (Errno::EAGAIN)
If the write buffer is not empty, it is flushed at first.
When write_nonblock
raises an exception kind of IO::WaitWritable
, write_nonblock
should not be called until io is writable for avoiding busy loop. This can be done as follows.
begin result = io.write_nonblock(string) rescue IO::WaitWritable, Errno::EINTR IO.select(nil, [io]) retry end
Note that this doesn’t guarantee to write all data in string. The length written is reported as result and it should be checked later.
On some platforms such as Windows, write_nonblock
is not supported according to the kind of the IO
object. In such cases, write_nonblock
raises Errno::EBADF
.
By specifying ‘exception: false`, the options hash allows you to indicate that write_nonblock
should not raise an IO::WaitWritable
exception, but return the symbol :wait_writable instead.
This method is called when the parser found syntax error.
