Results for: "String#[]"

Returns the OLE variable name and the value with class name.

Return the contents of this hash as a string.

h = { "c" => 300, "a" => 100, "d" => 400, "c" => 300  }
h.to_s   #=> "{\"c\"=>300, \"a\"=>100, \"d\"=>400}"

Element Assignment

Associates the value given by value with the key given by key.

h = { "a" => 100, "b" => 200 }
h["a"] = 9
h["c"] = 4
h   #=> {"a"=>9, "b"=>200, "c"=>4}
h.store("d", 42) #=> 42
h   #=> {"a"=>9, "b"=>200, "c"=>4, "d"=>42}

key should not have its value changed while it is in use as a key (an unfrozen String passed as a key will be duplicated and frozen).

a = "a"
b = "b".freeze
h = { a => 100, b => 200 }
h.key(100).equal? a #=> false
h.key(200).equal? b #=> true

Returns the number of key-value pairs in the hash.

h = { "d" => 100, "a" => 200, "v" => 300, "e" => 400 }
h.length        #=> 4
h.delete("a")   #=> 200
h.length        #=> 3

Returns a new hash created by using hsh’s values as keys, and the keys as values. If a key with the same value already exists in the hsh, then the last one defined will be used, the earlier value(s) will be discarded.

h = { "n" => 100, "m" => 100, "y" => 300, "d" => 200, "a" => 0 }
h.invert   #=> {0=>"a", 100=>"m", 200=>"d", 300=>"y"}

Returns true if the given key is present in hsh.

h = { "a" => 100, "b" => 200 }
h.has_key?("a")   #=> true
h.has_key?("z")   #=> false

Note that include? and member? do not test member equality using == as do other Enumerables.

See also Enumerable#include?

Sets the environment variable name to value. If the value given is nil the environment variable is deleted. name must be a string.

Returns a new hash created by using environment variable names as values and values as names.

Returns the contents of the environment as a String.

Deprecated method that is equivalent to ENV.key

Returns the number of environment variables.

Returns true if there is an environment variable with the given name.

Returns a Hash containing implementation-dependent counters inside the VM.

This hash includes information about method/constant cache serials:

{
  :global_method_state=>251,
  :global_constant_state=>481,
  :class_serial=>9029
}

The contents of the hash are implementation specific and may be changed in the future.

This method is only expected to work on C Ruby.

Synonym for $stdout.

Alias for CSV::read().

Rewinds the underlying IO object and resets CSV’s lineno() counter.

Returns a simplified description of the key CSV attributes in an ASCII compatible String.

Returns the IO used as stdout. Defaults to STDOUT

Sets the IO used as stdout. Defaults to STDOUT

Taint both the object returned by _getobj_ and self.

Untaint both the object returned by _getobj_ and self.

Explicitly terminate option processing.
