Dump the name, id, and status of thr to a string.
Returns the unique identifier for this proc, along with an indication of where the proc was defined.
The reason this block was terminated: :break, :redo, :retry, :next, :return, or :noreason.
Returns a clone of this method.
class A def foo return "bar" end end m = A.new.method(:foo) m.call # => "bar" n = m.clone.call # => "bar"
Returns the name of the underlying method.
"cat".method(:count).inspect #=> "#<Method: String#count>"
Dissociates meth from its current receiver. The resulting UnboundMethod can subsequently be bound to a new object of the same class (see UnboundMethod).
Returns a clone of this method.
class A def foo return "bar" end end m = A.new.method(:foo) m.call # => "bar" n = m.clone.call # => "bar"
Returns the name of the underlying method.
"cat".method(:count).inspect #=> "#<Method: String#count>"
Prevents threads from being added to or removed from the receiving ThreadGroup.
New threads can still be started in an enclosed ThreadGroup.
ThreadGroup::Default.enclose #=> #<ThreadGroup:0x4029d914> thr = Thread::new { Thread.stop } #=> #<Thread:0x402a7210 sleep> tg = ThreadGroup::new #=> #<ThreadGroup:0x402752d4> tg.add thr #=> ThreadError: can't move from the enclosed thread group
Returns true if the thgrp is enclosed. See also ThreadGroup#enclose.
Return a string containing a human-readable TracePoint status.
If object is string-like, parse the string and return the parsed result as a Ruby data structure. Otherwise, generate a JSON text from the Ruby data structure object and return it.
The opts argument is passed through to generate/parse respectively. See generate and parse for their documentation.
Returns the number of items in enum through enumeration. If an argument is given, the number of items in enum that are equal to item are counted. If a block is given, it counts the number of elements yielding a true value.
ary = [1, 2, 4, 2] ary.count #=> 4 ary.count(2) #=> 2 ary.count{ |x| x%2==0 } #=> 3
Passes each entry in enum to block. Returns the first for which block is not false. If no object matches, calls ifnone and returns its result when it is specified, or returns nil otherwise.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
(1..100).detect => #<Enumerator: 1..100:detect>
(1..100).find => #<Enumerator: 1..100:find>
(1..10).detect { |i| i % 5 == 0 and i % 7 == 0 } #=> nil
(1..10).find { |i| i % 5 == 0 and i % 7 == 0 } #=> nil
(1..100).detect { |i| i % 5 == 0 and i % 7 == 0 } #=> 35
(1..100).find { |i| i % 5 == 0 and i % 7 == 0 } #=> 35
Returns an array for all elements of enum for which the given block returns false.
If no block is given, an Enumerator is returned instead.
(1..10).reject { |i| i % 3 == 0 } #=> [1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10] [1, 2, 3, 4, 5].reject { |num| num.even? } #=> [1, 3, 5]
See also Enumerable#find_all.
Combines all elements of enum by applying a binary operation, specified by a block or a symbol that names a method or operator.
The inject and reduce methods are aliases. There is no performance benefit to either.
If you specify a block, then for each element in enum the block is passed an accumulator value (memo) and the element. If you specify a symbol instead, then each element in the collection will be passed to the named method of memo. In either case, the result becomes the new value for memo. At the end of the iteration, the final value of memo is the return value for the method.
If you do not explicitly specify an initial value for memo, then the first element of collection is used as the initial value of memo.
# Sum some numbers (5..10).reduce(:+) #=> 45 # Same using a block and inject (5..10).inject { |sum, n| sum + n } #=> 45 # Multiply some numbers (5..10).reduce(1, :*) #=> 151200 # Same using a block (5..10).inject(1) { |product, n| product * n } #=> 151200 # find the longest word longest = %w{ cat sheep bear }.inject do |memo, word| memo.length > word.length ? memo : word end longest #=> "sheep"
Passes each element of the collection to the given block. The method returns true if the block returns true exactly once. If the block is not given, one? will return true only if exactly one of the collection members is true.
%w{ant bear cat}.one? { |word| word.length == 4 } #=> true %w{ant bear cat}.one? { |word| word.length > 4 } #=> false %w{ant bear cat}.one? { |word| word.length < 4 } #=> false [ nil, true, 99 ].one? #=> false [ nil, true, false ].one? #=> true
Passes each element of the collection to the given block. The method returns true if the block never returns true for all elements. If the block is not given, none? will return true only if none of the collection members is true.
%w{ant bear cat}.none? { |word| word.length == 5 } #=> true %w{ant bear cat}.none? { |word| word.length >= 4 } #=> false [].none? #=> true [nil].none? #=> true [nil, false].none? #=> true [nil, false, true].none? #=> false
Returns true if any member of enum equals obj. Equality is tested using ==.
IO.constants.include? :SEEK_SET #=> true IO.constants.include? :SEEK_NO_FURTHER #=> false IO.constants.member? :SEEK_SET #=> true IO.constants.member? :SEEK_NO_FURTHER #=> false
Enumerates over the items, chunking them together based on the return value of the block.
Consecutive elements which return the same block value are chunked together.
For example, consecutive even numbers and odd numbers can be chunked as follows.
[3, 1, 4, 1, 5, 9, 2, 6, 5, 3, 5].chunk { |n| n.even? }.each { |even, ary| p [even, ary] } #=> [false, [3, 1]] # [true, [4]] # [false, [1, 5, 9]] # [true, [2, 6]] # [false, [5, 3, 5]]
This method is especially useful for sorted series of elements. The following example counts words for each initial letter.
open("/usr/share/dict/words", "r:iso-8859-1") { |f| f.chunk { |line| line.ord }.each { |ch, lines| p [ch.chr, lines.length] } } #=> ["\n", 1] # ["A", 1327] # ["B", 1372] # ["C", 1507] # ["D", 791] # ...
The following key values have special meaning:
nil and :_separator specifies that the elements should be dropped.
:_alone specifies that the element should be chunked by itself.
Any other symbols that begin with an underscore will raise an error:
items.chunk { |item| :_underscore } #=> RuntimeError: symbols beginning with an underscore are reserved
nil and :_separator can be used to ignore some elements.
For example, the sequence of hyphens in svn log can be eliminated as follows:
sep = "-"*72 + "\n" IO.popen("svn log README") { |f| f.chunk { |line| line != sep || nil }.each { |_, lines| pp lines } } #=> ["r20018 | knu | 2008-10-29 13:20:42 +0900 (Wed, 29 Oct 2008) | 2 lines\n", # "\n", # "* README, README.ja: Update the portability section.\n", # "\n"] # ["r16725 | knu | 2008-05-31 23:34:23 +0900 (Sat, 31 May 2008) | 2 lines\n", # "\n", # "* README, README.ja: Add a note about default C flags.\n", # "\n"] # ...
Paragraphs separated by empty lines can be parsed as follows:
File.foreach("README").chunk { |line| /\A\s*\z/ !~ line || nil }.each { |_, lines| pp lines }
:_alone can be used to force items into their own chunk. For example, you can put lines that contain a URL by themselves, and chunk the rest of the lines together, like this:
pattern = /http/ open(filename) { |f| f.chunk { |line| line =~ pattern ? :_alone : true }.each { |key, lines| pp lines } }
If no block is given, an enumerator to ‘chunk` is returned instead.
Returns system configuration directory.
This is typically “/etc”, but is modified by the prefix used when Ruby was compiled. For example, if Ruby is built and installed in /usr/local, returns “/usr/local/etc”.
Returns the system information obtained by uname system call.
The return value is a hash which has 5 keys at least:
:sysname, :nodename, :release, :version, :machine
Example:
require 'etc' require 'pp' pp Etc.uname #=> {:sysname=>"Linux", # :nodename=>"boron", # :release=>"2.6.18-6-xen-686", # :version=>"#1 SMP Thu Nov 5 19:54:42 UTC 2009", # :machine=>"i686"}
Returns system configuration variable using sysconf().
name should be a constant under Etc which begins with SC_.
The return value is an integer or nil. nil means indefinite limit. (sysconf() returns -1 but errno is not set.)
Etc.sysconf(Etc::SC_ARG_MAX) #=> 2097152 Etc.sysconf(Etc::SC_LOGIN_NAME_MAX) #=> 256
Returns system configuration variable using confstr().
name should be a constant under Etc which begins with CS_.
The return value is a string or nil. nil means no configuration-defined value. (confstr() returns 0 but errno is not set.)
Etc.confstr(Etc::CS_PATH) #=> "/bin:/usr/bin" # GNU/Linux Etc.confstr(Etc::CS_GNU_LIBC_VERSION) #=> "glibc 2.18" Etc.confstr(Etc::CS_GNU_LIBPTHREAD_VERSION) #=> "NPTL 2.18"
