Returns an enumerator which iterates over each line (separated by sep, which defaults to your platform’s newline character) of each file in ARGV. If a block is supplied, each line in turn will be yielded to the block, otherwise an enumerator is returned. The optional limit argument is an Integer specifying the maximum length of each line; longer lines will be split according to this limit.
This method allows you to treat the files supplied on the command line as a single file consisting of the concatenation of each named file. After the last line of the first file has been returned, the first line of the second file is returned. The ARGF.filename and ARGF.lineno methods can be used to determine the filename and line number, respectively, of the current line.
For example, the following code prints out each line of each named file prefixed with its line number, displaying the filename once per file:
ARGF.each_line do |line| puts ARGF.filename if ARGF.lineno == 1 puts "#{ARGF.lineno}: #{line}" end
This is a deprecated alias for each_char.
Reads the next character from ARGF and returns it as a String. Returns nil at the end of the stream.
ARGF treats the files named on the command line as a single file created by concatenating their contents. After returning the last character of the first file, it returns the first character of the second file, and so on.
For example:
$ echo "foo" > file $ ruby argf.rb file ARGF.getc #=> "f" ARGF.getc #=> "o" ARGF.getc #=> "o" ARGF.getc #=> "\n" ARGF.getc #=> nil ARGF.getc #=> nil
Reads the next character from ARGF and returns it as a String. Raises an EOFError after the last character of the last file has been read.
For example:
$ echo "foo" > file $ ruby argf.rb file ARGF.readchar #=> "f" ARGF.readchar #=> "o" ARGF.readchar #=> "o" ARGF.readchar #=> "\n" ARGF.readchar #=> end of file reached (EOFError)
Puts ARGF into binary mode. Once a stream is in binary mode, it cannot be reset to non-binary mode. This option has the following effects:
Newline conversion is disabled.
Encoding conversion is disabled.
Content is treated as ASCII-8BIT.
Returns true if ARGF is being read in binary mode; false otherwise. To enable binary mode use ARGF.binmode.
For example:
ARGF.binmode? #=> false ARGF.binmode ARGF.binmode? #=> true
If obj is Numeric, write the character whose code is the least-significant byte of obj, otherwise write the first byte of the string representation of obj to ios. Note: This method is not safe for use with multi-byte characters as it will truncate them.
$stdout.putc "A" $stdout.putc 65
produces:
AA
Returns the current filename. “-” is returned when the current file is STDIN.
For example:
$ echo "foo" > foo $ echo "bar" > bar $ echo "glark" > glark $ ruby argf.rb foo bar glark ARGF.filename #=> "foo" ARGF.read(5) #=> "foo\nb" ARGF.filename #=> "bar" ARGF.skip ARGF.filename #=> "glark"
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.
This method is intended as the primary interface for reading CSV files. You pass a path and any options you wish to set for the read. Each row of file will be passed to the provided block in turn.
The options parameter can be anything CSV::new() understands. This method also understands an additional :encoding parameter that you can use to specify the Encoding of the data in the file to be read. You must provide this unless your data is in Encoding::default_external(). CSV will use this to determine how to parse the data. You may provide a second Encoding to have the data transcoded as it is read. For example, encoding: "UTF-32BE:UTF-8" would read UTF-32BE data from the file but transcode it to UTF-8 before CSV parses it.
This method wraps a String you provide, or an empty default String, in a CSV object which is passed to the provided block. You can use the block to append CSV rows to the String and when the block exits, the final String will be returned.
Note that a passed String is modified by this method. Call dup() before passing if you need a new String.
The options parameter can be anything CSV::new() understands. This method understands an additional :encoding parameter when not passed a String to set the base Encoding for the output. CSV needs this hint if you plan to output non-ASCII compatible data.
Yields each row of the data source in turn.
Support for Enumerable.
The data source must be open for reading.
Explicitly terminate option processing.
Returns true if option processing has terminated, false otherwise.
Iterator version of ‘get’.
The block is called repeatedly with two arguments: The first is the option name. The second is the argument which followed it (if any). Example: (‘–opt’, ‘value’)
The option name is always converted to the first (preferred) name given in the original options to GetoptLong.new.
Returns a new ipaddr built by masking IP address with the given prefixlen/netmask. (e.g. 8, 64, “255.255.255.0”, etc.)
Returns a new ipaddr built by converting the IPv6 address into a native IPv4 address. If the IP address is not an IPv4-mapped or IPv4-compatible IPv6 address, returns self.
Set current netmask to given mask.
Returns true iff the current severity level allows for the printing of FATAL messages.
Yields all elements of the matrix, starting with those of the first row, or returns an Enumerator if no block given. Elements can be restricted by passing an argument:
:all (default): yields all elements
:diagonal: yields only elements on the diagonal
:off_diagonal: yields all elements except on the diagonal
:lower: yields only elements on or below the diagonal
:strict_lower: yields only elements below the diagonal
:strict_upper: yields only elements above the diagonal
:upper: yields only elements on or above the diagonal
Matrix[ [1,2], [3,4] ].each { |e| puts e }
# => prints the numbers 1 to 4
Matrix[ [1,2], [3,4] ].each(:strict_lower).to_a # => [3]
Returns true if this is a normal matrix. Raises an error if matrix is not square.
