Returns true
if this gem is installable for the current platform.
Returns true
if this gem is installable for the current platform.
Returns true if this specification is installable on this platform.
Returns the element at index
. A negative index counts from the end of self
. Returns nil
if the index is out of range. See also Array#[]
.
a = [ "a", "b", "c", "d", "e" ] a.at(0) #=> "a" a.at(-1) #=> "e"
Appends the elements of +other_ary+s to self
.
[ "a", "b" ].concat( ["c", "d"] ) #=> [ "a", "b", "c", "d" ] [ "a" ].concat( ["b"], ["c", "d"] ) #=> [ "a", "b", "c", "d" ] [ "a" ].concat #=> [ "a" ] a = [ 1, 2, 3 ] a.concat( [ 4, 5 ] ) a #=> [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ] a = [ 1, 2 ] a.concat(a, a) #=> [1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2]

.
Returns a new array that is a one-dimensional flattening of self
(recursively).
That is, for every element that is an array, extract its elements into the new array.
The optional level
argument determines the level of recursion to flatten.
s = [ 1, 2, 3 ] #=> [1, 2, 3] t = [ 4, 5, 6, [7, 8] ] #=> [4, 5, 6, [7, 8]] a = [ s, t, 9, 10 ] #=> [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6, [7, 8]], 9, 10] a.flatten #=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10] a = [ 1, 2, [3, [4, 5] ] ] a.flatten(1) #=> [1, 2, 3, [4, 5]]
Flattens self
in place.
Returns nil
if no modifications were made (i.e., the array contains no subarrays.)
The optional level
argument determines the level of recursion to flatten.
a = [ 1, 2, [3, [4, 5] ] ] a.flatten! #=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] a.flatten! #=> nil a #=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] a = [ 1, 2, [3, [4, 5] ] ] a.flatten!(1) #=> [1, 2, 3, [4, 5]]
When invoked with a block, yields all combinations of length n
of elements from the array and then returns the array itself.
The implementation makes no guarantees about the order in which the combinations are yielded.
If no block is given, an Enumerator
is returned instead.
Examples:
a = [1, 2, 3, 4] a.combination(1).to_a #=> [[1],[2],[3],[4]] a.combination(2).to_a #=> [[1,2],[1,3],[1,4],[2,3],[2,4],[3,4]] a.combination(3).to_a #=> [[1,2,3],[1,2,4],[1,3,4],[2,3,4]] a.combination(4).to_a #=> [[1,2,3,4]] a.combination(0).to_a #=> [[]] # one combination of length 0 a.combination(5).to_a #=> [] # no combinations of length 5
Returns first n
elements from the array.
If a negative number is given, raises an ArgumentError
.
See also Array#drop
a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 0] a.take(3) #=> [1, 2, 3]
The primary interface to this library. Use to setup delegation when defining your class.
class MyClass < DelegateClass(ClassToDelegateTo) # Step 1 def initialize super(obj_of_ClassToDelegateTo) # Step 2 end end
Here’s a sample of use from Tempfile
which is really a File
object with a few special rules about storage location and when the File
should be deleted. That makes for an almost textbook perfect example of how to use delegation.
class Tempfile < DelegateClass(File) # constant and class member data initialization... def initialize(basename, tmpdir=Dir::tmpdir) # build up file path/name in var tmpname... @tmpfile = File.open(tmpname, File::RDWR|File::CREAT|File::EXCL, 0600) # ... super(@tmpfile) # below this point, all methods of File are supported... end # ... end
Mark the object as tainted.
Objects that are marked as tainted will be restricted from various built-in methods. This is to prevent insecure data, such as command-line arguments or strings read from Kernel#gets
, from inadvertently compromising the user’s system.
To check whether an object is tainted, use tainted?
.
You should only untaint a tainted object if your code has inspected it and determined that it is safe. To do so use untaint
.
Yields self to the block, and then returns self. The primary purpose of this method is to “tap into” a method chain, in order to perform operations on intermediate results within the chain.
(1..10) .tap {|x| puts "original: #{x.inspect}"} .to_a .tap {|x| puts "array: #{x.inspect}"} .select {|x| x%2==0} .tap {|x| puts "evens: #{x.inspect}"} .map {|x| x*x} .tap {|x| puts "squares: #{x.inspect}"}
Returns the smallest number than or equal to int
in decimal digits (default 0 digits).
Precision may be negative. Returns a floating point number when ndigits
is positive, self
for zero, and truncate up for negative.
1.truncate #=> 1 1.truncate(2) #=> 1.0 15.truncate(-1) #=> 10
Returns self.
