Puts ios into binary mode. Once a stream is in binary mode, it cannot be reset to nonbinary mode.
newline conversion disabled
encoding conversion disabled
content is treated as ASCII-8BIT
Returns true if ios is binmode.
Return a string describing this IO object.
Associates the value value with the specified key.
Returns the number of key-value pairs in this database.
Returns a hash created by using gdbm’s values as keys, and the keys as values.
Turns the database’s fast mode on or off. If fast mode is turned on, gdbm does not wait for writes to be flushed to the disk before continuing.
This option is obsolete for gdbm >= 1.8 since fast mode is turned on by default. See also: syncmode=
Returns true if the given key k exists within the database. Returns false otherwise.
Returns a string containing a detailed summary of the keys and values.
Iterates over the range, passing each nth element to the block. If begin and end are numeric, n is added for each iteration. Otherwise step invokes succ to iterate through range elements.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
range = Xs.new(1)..Xs.new(10) range.step(2) {|x| puts x} puts range.step(3) {|x| puts x}
produces:
1 x 3 xxx 5 xxxxx 7 xxxxxxx 9 xxxxxxxxx 1 x 4 xxxx 7 xxxxxxx 10 xxxxxxxxxx
See Range for the definition of class Xs.
Returns the first object in the range, or an array of the first n elements.
(10..20).first #=> 10 (10..20).first(3) #=> [10, 11, 12]
Returns the last object in the range, or an array of the last n elements.
Note that with no arguments last will return the object that defines the end of the range even if exclude_end? is true.
(10..20).last #=> 20 (10...20).last #=> 20 (10..20).last(3) #=> [18, 19, 20] (10...20).last(3) #=> [17, 18, 19]
Returns the minimum value in the range. Returns nil if the begin value of the range is larger than the end value. Returns nil if the begin value of an exclusive range is equal to the end value.
Can be given an optional block to override the default comparison method a <=> b.
(10..20).min #=> 10
Convert this range object to a printable form (using inspect to convert the begin and end objects).
Returns true if obj is an element of the range, false otherwise. If begin and end are numeric, comparison is done according to the magnitude of the values.
("a".."z").include?("g") #=> true ("a".."z").include?("A") #=> false ("a".."z").include?("cc") #=> false
Produce a nicely formatted string-version of rxp. Perhaps surprisingly, #inspect actually produces the more natural version of the string than #to_s.
/ab+c/ix.inspect #=> "/ab+c/ix"
In general, to_sym returns the Symbol corresponding to an object. As sym is already a symbol, self is returned in this case.
Same as sym.to_s.length.
Returns true if self points to a mountpoint.
Joins the given pathnames onto self to create a new Pathname object.
path0 = Pathname.new("/usr") # Pathname:/usr path0 = path0.join("bin/ruby") # Pathname:/usr/bin/ruby # is the same as path1 = Pathname.new("/usr") + "bin/ruby" # Pathname:/usr/bin/ruby path0 == path1 #=> true
Iterates over the directory tree in a depth first manner, yielding a Pathname for each file under “this” directory.
Returns an Enumerator if no block is given.
Since it is implemented by the standard library module Find, Find.prune can be used to control the traversal.
If self is ., yielded pathnames begin with a filename in the current directory, not ./.
See Find.find
Recursively deletes a directory, including all directories beneath it.
