This is similar to PrettyPrint::format but the result has no breaks.
maxwidth, newline and genspace are ignored.
The invocation of breakable in the block doesn’t break a line and is treated as just an invocation of text.
Returns the object in ary with the maximum value. The first form assumes all objects implement Comparable; the second uses the block to return a <=> b.
a = %w(albatross dog horse) a.max #=> "horse" a.max { |a, b| a.length <=> b.length } #=> "albatross"
If the n argument is given, maximum n elements are returned as an array.
a = %w[albatross dog horse] a.max(2) #=> ["horse", "dog"] a.max(2) {|a, b| a.length <=> b.length } #=> ["albatross", "horse"]
Returns the object in ary with the minimum value. The first form assumes all objects implement Comparable; the second uses the block to return a <=> b.
a = %w(albatross dog horse) a.min #=> "albatross" a.min { |a, b| a.length <=> b.length } #=> "dog"
If the n argument is given, minimum n elements are returned as an array.
a = %w[albatross dog horse] a.min(2) #=> ["albatross", "dog"] a.min(2) {|a, b| a.length <=> b.length } #=> ["dog", "horse"]
Returns the remainder after dividing big by numeric as:
x.remainder(y) means x-y*(x/y).truncate
Examples
5.remainder(3) #=> 2 -5.remainder(3) #=> -2 5.remainder(-3) #=> 2 -5.remainder(-3) #=> -2 -1234567890987654321.remainder(13731) #=> -6966 -1234567890987654321.remainder(13731.24) #=> -9906.22531493148
See Numeric#divmod.
Returns 1.
Returns the imaginary part.
Complex(7).imaginary #=> 0 Complex(9, -4).imaginary #=> -4
Returns the denominator (lcm of both denominator - real and imag).
See numerator.
Returns values corresponding to the value of cmp‘s magnitude:
finite
nil
+Infinity
+1
For example: (1+1i).infinite? #=> nil (Float::INFINITY + 1i).infinite? #=> 1
Returns zero.
Returns values corresponding to the value of num‘s magnitude:
finite
nil
-Infinity
-1
+Infinity
+1
Returns the denominator (always positive).
Return values corresponding to the value of float:
finite
nil
-Infinity
-1
+Infinity
1
For example:
(0.0).infinite? #=> nil (-1.0/0.0).infinite? #=> -1 (+1.0/0.0).infinite? #=> 1
Returns the denominator (always positive). The result is machine dependent.
See numerator.
Returns true if path matches against pattern. The pattern is not a regular expression; instead it follows rules similar to shell filename globbing. It may contain the following metacharacters:
*
Matches any file. Can be restricted by other values in the glob. Equivalent to / .* /x in regexp.
*
Matches all files regular files
c*
Matches all files beginning with c
*c
Matches all files ending with c
*c*
Matches all files that have c in them (including at the beginning or end).
To match hidden files (that start with a . set the File::FNM_DOTMATCH flag.
**
Matches directories recursively or files expansively.
?
Matches any one character. Equivalent to /.{1}/ in regexp.
[set]
Matches any one character in set. Behaves exactly like character sets in Regexp, including set negation ([^a-z]).
\
Escapes the next metacharacter.
{a,b}
Matches pattern a and pattern b if File::FNM_EXTGLOB flag is enabled. Behaves like a Regexp union ((?:a|b)).
flags is a bitwise OR of the FNM_XXX constants. The same glob pattern and flags are used by Dir::glob.
