Returns a new array containing self‘s elements in reverse order.
[ "a", "b", "c" ].reverse #=> ["c", "b", "a"] [ 1 ].reverse #=> [1]
Reverses self in place.
a = [ "a", "b", "c" ] a.reverse! #=> ["c", "b", "a"] a #=> ["c", "b", "a"]
Returns a new array created by sorting self.
Comparisons for the sort will be done using the <=> operator or using an optional code block.
The block must implement a comparison between a and b and return an integer less than 0 when b follows a, 0 when a and b are equivalent, or an integer greater than 0 when a follows b.
The result is not guaranteed to be stable. When the comparison of two elements returns 0, the order of the elements is unpredictable.
ary = [ "d", "a", "e", "c", "b" ] ary.sort #=> ["a", "b", "c", "d", "e"] ary.sort { |a, b| b <=> a } #=> ["e", "d", "c", "b", "a"]

ary = [ "d", "a", "e", "c", "b" ] ary.sort! #=> ["a", "b", "c", "d", "e"] ary.sort! { |a, b| b <=> a } #=> ["e", "d", "c", "b", "a"]

Returns a new array containing the items in self for which the given block is not true. The ordering of non-rejected elements is maintained.
See also Array#delete_if
If no block is given, an Enumerator is returned instead.
Deletes every element of self for which the block evaluates to true, if no changes were made returns nil.
The array may not be changed instantly every time the block is called.
See also Enumerable#reject and Array#delete_if.
If no block is given, an Enumerator is returned instead.
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"]
Creates a string representation of self.
[ "a", "b", "c" ].to_s #=> "[\"a\", \"b\", \"c\"]"
Prepends objects to the front of self, moving other elements upwards. See also Array#shift for the opposite effect.
a = [ "b", "c", "d" ] a.unshift("a") #=> ["a", "b", "c", "d"] a.unshift(1, 2) #=> [ 1, 2, "a", "b", "c", "d"]
Calculates the set of unambiguous abbreviations for the strings in self.
require 'abbrev' %w{ car cone }.abbrev #=> {"car"=>"car", "ca"=>"car", "cone"=>"cone", "con"=>"cone", "co"=>"cone"}
The optional pattern parameter is a pattern or a string. Only input strings that match the pattern or start with the string are included in the output hash.
%w{ fast boat day }.abbrev(/^.a/) #=> {"fast"=>"fast", "fas"=>"fast", "fa"=>"fast", "day"=>"day", "da"=>"day"} Abbrev.abbrev(%w{car box cone}, "ca") #=> {"car"=>"car", "ca"=>"car"}

Returns a Digest subclass by name in a thread-safe manner even when on-demand loading is involved.
require 'digest' Digest("MD5") # => Digest::MD5 Digest(:SHA256) # => Digest::SHA256 Digest(:Foo) # => LoadError: library not found for class Digest::Foo -- digest/foo

Deprecated method that is equivalent to taint.
Deprecated method that is equivalent to tainted?.
Deprecated method that is equivalent to untaint.
Prevents further modifications to obj. A RuntimeError will be raised if modification is attempted. There is no way to unfreeze a frozen object. See also Object#frozen?.
This method returns self.
a = [ "a", "b", "c" ] a.freeze a << "z"
produces:
prog.rb:3:in `<<': can't modify frozen Array (FrozenError) from prog.rb:3
Objects of the following classes are always frozen: Integer, Float, Symbol.
Returns a string representing obj. The default to_s prints the object’s class and an encoding of the object id. As a special case, the top-level object that is the initial execution context of Ruby programs returns “main”.
Returns the value of int as a BigDecimal.
require 'bigdecimal' require 'bigdecimal/util' 42.to_d # => 0.42e2
See also BigDecimal::new.
Returns a string containing the place-value representation of int with radix base (between 2 and 36).
12345.to_s #=> "12345" 12345.to_s(2) #=> "11000000111001" 12345.to_s(8) #=> "30071" 12345.to_s(10) #=> "12345" 12345.to_s(16) #=> "3039" 12345.to_s(36) #=> "9ix" 78546939656932.to_s(36) #=> "rubyrules"
Iterates the given block, passing in integer values from int up to and including limit.
If no block is given, an Enumerator is returned instead.
5.upto(10) {|i| print i, " " } #=> 5 6 7 8 9 10
Iterates the given block, passing in decreasing values from int down to and including limit.
If no block is given, an Enumerator is returned instead.
5.downto(1) { |n| print n, ".. " } puts "Liftoff!" #=> "5.. 4.. 3.. 2.. 1.. Liftoff!"
Returns the predecessor of int, i.e. the Integer equal to int-1.
1.pred #=> 0 (-1).pred #=> -2
Returns the int itself.
97.ord #=> 97
This method is intended for compatibility to character literals in Ruby 1.9.
For example, ?a.ord returns 97 both in 1.8 and 1.9.
