Returns true iff there is more data in the string. See eos?. This method is obsolete; use eos? instead.
s = StringScanner.new('test string') s.eos? # These two s.rest? # are opposites.
Returns the “rest” of the string (i.e. everything after the scan pointer). If there is no more data (eos? = true), it returns "".
s.restsize is equivalent to s.rest_size. This method is obsolete; use rest_size instead.
Returns array of WIN32OLE_VARIABLE objects which represent variables defined in OLE class.
tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library', 'XlSheetType') vars = tobj.variables vars.each do |v| puts "#{v.name} = #{v.value}" end The result of above sample script is follows: xlChart = -4109 xlDialogSheet = -4116 xlExcel4IntlMacroSheet = 4 xlExcel4MacroSheet = 3 xlWorksheet = -4167
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
Sets the environment variable name to value. If the value given is nil the environment variable is deleted. name must be a string.
Writes string if inplace mode.
Writes the given object(s) to ios. Returns nil.
The stream must be opened for writing. Each given object that isn’t a string will be converted by calling its to_s method. When called without arguments, prints the contents of $_.
If the output field separator ($,) is not nil, it is inserted between objects. If the output record separator ($\) is not nil, it is appended to the output.
$stdout.print("This is ", 100, " percent.\n")
produces:
This is 100 percent.
Formats and writes to ios, converting parameters under control of the format string. See Kernel#sprintf for details.
Sets the current file to the next file in ARGV. If there aren’t any more files it has no effect.
For example:
$ ruby argf.rb foo bar ARGF.filename #=> "foo" ARGF.skip ARGF.filename #=> "bar"
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 $stdin.
Synonym for $stdout.
Print an argument or list of arguments to the default output stream
cgi = CGI.new cgi.print # default: cgi.print == $DEFAULT_OUTPUT.print
This method will return a CSV instance, just like CSV::new(), but the instance will be cached and returned for all future calls to this method for the same data object (tested by Object#object_id()) with the same options.
If a block is given, the instance is passed to the block and the return value becomes the return value of the block.
Returns the IO used as stdout. Defaults to STDOUT
Sets the IO used as stdout. Defaults to STDOUT
Set the handling of the ordering of options and arguments. A RuntimeError is raised if option processing has already started.
The supplied value must be a member of GetoptLong::ORDERINGS. It alters the processing of options as follows:
REQUIRE_ORDER :
Options are required to occur before non-options.
Processing of options ends as soon as a word is encountered that has not been preceded by an appropriate option flag.
For example, if -a and -b are options which do not take arguments, parsing command line arguments of ‘-a one -b two’ would result in ‘one’, ‘-b’, ‘two’ being left in ARGV, and only (‘-a’, ”) being processed as an option/arg pair.
This is the default ordering, if the environment variable POSIXLY_CORRECT is set. (This is for compatibility with GNU getopt_long.)
PERMUTE :
Options can occur anywhere in the command line parsed. This is the default behavior.
Every sequence of words which can be interpreted as an option (with or without argument) is treated as an option; non-option words are skipped.
For example, if -a does not require an argument and -b optionally takes an argument, parsing ‘-a one -b two three’ would result in (‘-a’,”) and (‘-b’, ‘two’) being processed as option/arg pairs, and ‘one’,‘three’ being left in ARGV.
If the ordering is set to PERMUTE but the environment variable POSIXLY_CORRECT is set, REQUIRE_ORDER is used instead. This is for compatibility with GNU getopt_long.
RETURN_IN_ORDER :
All words on the command line are processed as options. Words not preceded by a short or long option flag are passed as arguments with an option of ” (empty string).
For example, if -a requires an argument but -b does not, a command line of ‘-a one -b two three’ would result in option/arg pairs of (‘-a’, ‘one’) (‘-b’, ”), (”, ‘two’), (”, ‘three’) being processed.
Returns true if the ipaddr is an IPv4 address.
Returns true if the ipaddr is an IPv6 address.
Create a matrix by stacking matrices vertically
x = Matrix[[1, 2], [3, 4]] y = Matrix[[5, 6], [7, 8]] Matrix.vstack(x, y) # => Matrix[[1, 2], [3, 4], [5, 6], [7, 8]]
Create a matrix by stacking matrices horizontally
x = Matrix[[1, 2], [3, 4]] y = Matrix[[5, 6], [7, 8]] Matrix.hstack(x, y) # => Matrix[[1, 2, 5, 6], [3, 4, 7, 8]]
Returns a new matrix resulting by stacking horizontally the receiver with the given matrices
x = Matrix[[1, 2], [3, 4]] y = Matrix[[5, 6], [7, 8]] x.hstack(y) # => Matrix[[1, 2, 5, 6], [3, 4, 7, 8]]
Returns the trace (sum of diagonal elements) of the matrix.
Matrix[[7,6], [3,9]].trace => 16
