A node-set is converted to a string by returning the string-value of the node in the node-set that is first in document order. If the node-set is empty, an empty string is returned.
A number is converted to a string as follows
NaN is converted to the string NaN
positive zero is converted to the string 0
negative zero is converted to the string 0
positive infinity is converted to the string Infinity
negative infinity is converted to the string -Infinity
if the number is an integer, the number is represented in decimal form as a Number with no decimal point and no leading zeros, preceded by a minus sign (-) if the number is negative
otherwise, the number is represented in decimal form as a Number including a decimal point with at least one digit before the decimal point and at least one digit after the decimal point, preceded by a minus sign (-) if the number is negative; there must be no leading zeros before the decimal point apart possibly from the one required digit immediately before the decimal point; beyond the one required digit after the decimal point there must be as many, but only as many, more digits as are needed to uniquely distinguish the number from all other IEEE 754 numeric values.
The boolean false value is converted to the string false. The boolean true value is converted to the string true.
An object of a type other than the four basic types is converted to a string in a way that is dependent on that type.

Called when an instruction is encountered. EG: <?xsl sheet=‘foo’?> @p name the instruction name; in the example, “xsl” @p instruction the rest of the instruction. In the example, “sheet=‘foo’”
Builder for an RSS object Creates an object of the type passed in args
Executes the block to populate elements of the created RSS object
Returns collection of supported makers

Returns whether this dependency, which has no possible matching specifications, can safely be ignored.
@param [Object] dependency @return [Boolean] whether this dependency can safely be skipped.
Replaces the contents of self with the contents of other_ary, truncating or expanding if necessary.
a = [ "a", "b", "c", "d", "e" ] a.replace([ "x", "y", "z" ]) #=> ["x", "y", "z"] a #=> ["x", "y", "z"]
Same as Array#each, but passes the index of the element instead of the element itself.
An Enumerator is returned if no block is given.
a = [ "a", "b", "c" ] a.each_index {|x| print x, " -- " }
produces:
0 -- 1 -- 2 --
When invoked with a block, yields all repeated 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 repeated combinations are yielded.
If no block is given, an Enumerator is returned instead.
Examples:
a = [1, 2, 3] a.repeated_combination(1).to_a #=> [[1], [2], [3]] a.repeated_combination(2).to_a #=> [[1,1],[1,2],[1,3],[2,2],[2,3],[3,3]] a.repeated_combination(3).to_a #=> [[1,1,1],[1,1,2],[1,1,3],[1,2,2],[1,2,3], # [1,3,3],[2,2,2],[2,2,3],[2,3,3],[3,3,3]] a.repeated_combination(4).to_a #=> [[1,1,1,1],[1,1,1,2],[1,1,1,3],[1,1,2,2],[1,1,2,3], # [1,1,3,3],[1,2,2,2],[1,2,2,3],[1,2,3,3],[1,3,3,3], # [2,2,2,2],[2,2,2,3],[2,2,3,3],[2,3,3,3],[3,3,3,3]] a.repeated_combination(0).to_a #=> [[]] # one combination of length 0
By using binary search, finds an index of a value from this array which meets the given condition in O(log n) where n is the size of the array.
It supports two modes, depending on the nature of the block and they are exactly the same as in the case of bsearch method with the only difference being that this method returns the index of the element instead of the element itself. For more details consult the documentation for bsearch.
Returns the singleton class of obj. This method creates a new singleton class if obj does not have one.
If obj is nil, true, or false, it returns NilClass, TrueClass, or FalseClass, respectively. If obj is an Integer, a Float or a Symbol, it raises a TypeError.
Object.new.singleton_class #=> #<Class:#<Object:0xb7ce1e24>> String.singleton_class #=> #<Class:String> nil.singleton_class #=> NilClass
Returns an array of the names of singleton methods for obj. If the optional all parameter is true, the list will include methods in modules included in obj. Only public and protected singleton methods are returned.
module Other def three() end end class Single def Single.four() end end a = Single.new def a.one() end class << a include Other def two() end end Single.singleton_methods #=> [:four] a.singleton_methods(false) #=> [:two, :one] a.singleton_methods #=> [:two, :one, :three]
