mtch.values_at([index]*) -> array
Uses each index to access the matching values, returning an array of the corresponding matches.
m = /(.)(.)(\d+)(\d)/.match("THX1138: The Movie") m.to_a #=> ["HX1138", "H", "X", "113", "8"] m.values_at(0, 2, -2) #=> ["HX1138", "X", "113"] m = /(?<a>\d+) *(?<op>[+\-*\/]) *(?<b>\d+)/.match("1 + 2") m.to_a #=> ["1 + 2", "1", "+", "2"] m.values_at(:a, :b, :op) #=> ["1", "2", "+"]
Returns the portion of the original string before the current match. Equivalent to the special variable $`.
m = /(.)(.)(\d+)(\d)/.match("THX1138.") m.pre_match #=> "T"
Returns the portion of the original string after the current match. Equivalent to the special variable $'.
m = /(.)(.)(\d+)(\d)/.match("THX1138: The Movie") m.post_match #=> ": The Movie"
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 factorization of value.
value
An arbitrary integer.
generator
Optional. A pseudo-prime generator. generator.succ must return the next pseudo-prime number in the ascending order. It must generate all prime numbers, but may also generate non prime numbers too.
ZeroDivisionError
when value is zero.
For an arbitrary integer:
n = p_1**e_1 * p_2**e_2 * .... * p_n**e_n,
prime_division(n) returns:
[[p_1, e_1], [p_2, e_2], ...., [p_n, e_n]]. Prime.prime_division(12) #=> [[2,2], [3,1]]
Load the given PStore file. If read_only is true, the unmarshalled Hash will be returned. If read_only is false, a 3-tuple will be returned: the unmarshalled Hash, a checksum of the data, and the size of the data.
Iterates the given block over all prime numbers.
See Prime#each for more details.
Returns the number of bits of the value of int.
“the number of bits” means that the bit position of the highest bit which is different to the sign bit. (The bit position of the bit 2**n is n+1.) If there is no such bit (zero or minus one), zero is returned.
I.e. This method returns ceil(log2(int < 0 ? -int : int+1)).
(-2**10000-1).bit_length #=> 10001 (-2**10000).bit_length #=> 10000 (-2**10000+1).bit_length #=> 10000 (-2**1000-1).bit_length #=> 1001 (-2**1000).bit_length #=> 1000 (-2**1000+1).bit_length #=> 1000 (-2**12-1).bit_length #=> 13 (-2**12).bit_length #=> 12 (-2**12+1).bit_length #=> 12 -0x101.bit_length #=> 9 -0x100.bit_length #=> 8 -0xff.bit_length #=> 8 -2.bit_length #=> 1 -1.bit_length #=> 0 0.bit_length #=> 0 1.bit_length #=> 1 0xff.bit_length #=> 8 0x100.bit_length #=> 9 (2**12-1).bit_length #=> 12 (2**12).bit_length #=> 13 (2**12+1).bit_length #=> 13 (2**1000-1).bit_length #=> 1000 (2**1000).bit_length #=> 1001 (2**1000+1).bit_length #=> 1001 (2**10000-1).bit_length #=> 10000 (2**10000).bit_length #=> 10001 (2**10000+1).bit_length #=> 10001
This method can be used to detect overflow in Array#pack as follows.
if n.bit_length < 32 [n].pack("l") # no overflow else raise "overflow" end
Convenience method for Shell::CommandProcessor.unalias_command
Returns an array of the names of the thread-local variables (as Symbols).
thr = Thread.new do Thread.current.thread_variable_set(:cat, 'meow') Thread.current.thread_variable_set("dog", 'woof') end thr.join #=> #<Thread:0x401b3f10 dead> thr.thread_variables #=> [:dog, :cat]
Note that these are not fiber local variables. Please see Thread#[] and Thread#thread_variable_get for more details.
Returns true if the given string (or symbol) exists as a thread-local variable.
me = Thread.current me.thread_variable_set(:oliver, "a") me.thread_variable?(:oliver) #=> true me.thread_variable?(:stanley) #=> false
Note that these are not fiber local variables. Please see Thread#[] and Thread#thread_variable_get for more details.
Returns the execution stack for the target thread—an array containing backtrace location objects.
See Thread::Backtrace::Location for more information.
This method behaves similarly to Kernel#caller_locations except it applies to a specific thread.
Returns the Ruby source filename and line number containing this proc or nil if this proc was not defined in Ruby (i.e. native).
Returns the Ruby source filename and line number containing this method or nil if this method was not defined in Ruby (i.e. native).
Returns the Ruby source filename and line number containing this method or nil if this method was not defined in Ruby (i.e. native).
Converts block to a Proc object (and therefore binds it at the point of call) and registers it for execution when the program exits. If multiple handlers are registered, they are executed in reverse order of registration.
def do_at_exit(str1) at_exit { print str1 } end at_exit { puts "cruel world" } do_at_exit("goodbye ") exit
produces:
goodbye cruel world
Ruby tries to load the library named string relative to the requiring file’s path. If the file’s path cannot be determined a LoadError is raised. If a file is loaded true is returned and false otherwise.
Returns the current execution stack—an array containing backtrace location objects.
See Thread::Backtrace::Location for more information.
The optional start parameter determines the number of initial stack entries to omit from the top of the stack.
A second optional length parameter can be used to limit how many entries are returned from the stack.
Returns nil if start is greater than the size of current execution stack.
Optionally you can pass a range, which will return an array containing the entries within the specified range.
Returns a new array with the concatenated results of running block once for every element in enum.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
[1, 2, 3, 4].flat_map { |e| [e, -e] } #=> [1, -1, 2, -2, 3, -3, 4, -4] [[1, 2], [3, 4]].flat_map { |e| e + [100] } #=> [1, 2, 100, 3, 4, 100]
Returns a new array with the concatenated results of running block once for every element in enum.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
[1, 2, 3, 4].flat_map { |e| [e, -e] } #=> [1, -1, 2, -2, 3, -3, 4, -4] [[1, 2], [3, 4]].flat_map { |e| e + [100] } #=> [1, 2, 100, 3, 4, 100]
Generate a JSON document from the Ruby data structure obj and return it. This method disables the checks for circles in Ruby objects.
WARNING: Be careful not to pass any Ruby data structures with circles as obj argument because this will cause JSON to go into an infinite loop.
Generate a JSON document from the Ruby data structure obj and return it. The returned document is a prettier form of the document returned by unparse.
The opts argument can be used to configure the generator. See the generate method for a more detailed explanation.
