Sets a password in realm

Sets up the resolution process @return [void]
Returns the first element, or the first n
elements, of the array. If the array is empty, the first form returns nil
, and the second form returns an empty array. See also Array#last
for the opposite effect.
a = [ "q", "r", "s", "t" ] a.first #=> "q" a.first(2) #=> ["q", "r"]
Appends the elements of +other_ary+s to self
.
[ "a", "b" ].concat( ["c", "d"] ) #=> [ "a", "b", "c", "d" ] [ "a" ].concat( ["b"], ["c", "d"] ) #=> [ "a", "b", "c", "d" ] [ "a" ].concat #=> [ "a" ] a = [ 1, 2, 3 ] a.concat( [ 4, 5 ] ) a #=> [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ] a = [ 1, 2 ] a.concat(a, a) #=> [1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2]
See also Array#+
.
Removes the last element from self
and returns it, or nil
if the array is empty.
If a number n
is given, returns an array of the last n
elements (or less) just like array.slice!(-n, n)
does. See also Array#push
for the opposite effect.
a = [ "a", "b", "c", "d" ] a.pop #=> "d" a.pop(2) #=> ["b", "c"] a #=> ["a"]
Returns a new array containing all elements of ary
for which the given block
returns a true value.
If no block is given, an Enumerator
is returned instead.
[1,2,3,4,5].select { |num| num.even? } #=> [2, 4] a = %w{ a b c d e f } a.select { |v| v =~ /[aeiou]/ } #=> ["a", "e"]
See also Enumerable#select
.
Invokes the given block passing in successive elements from self
, deleting elements for which the block returns a false
value.
The array may not be changed instantly every time the block is called.
If changes were made, it will return self
, otherwise it returns nil
.
See also Array#keep_if
If no block is given, an Enumerator
is returned instead.
Assumes that self
is an array of arrays and transposes the rows and columns.
a = [[1,2], [3,4], [5,6]] a.transpose #=> [[1, 3, 5], [2, 4, 6]]
If the length of the subarrays don’t match, an IndexError
is raised.
Returns a copy of self
with all nil
elements removed.
[ "a", nil, "b", nil, "c", nil ].compact #=> [ "a", "b", "c" ]
Removes nil
elements from the array.
Returns nil
if no changes were made, otherwise returns the array.
[ "a", nil, "b", nil, "c" ].compact! #=> [ "a", "b", "c" ] [ "a", "b", "c" ].compact! #=> nil
Drops first n
elements from ary
and returns the rest of the elements in an array.
If a negative number is given, raises an ArgumentError
.
See also Array#take
a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 0] a.drop(3) #=> [4, 5, 0]
provides a unified clone
operation, for REXML::XPathParser
to use across multiple Object+ types
Packs the contents of arr into a binary sequence according to the directives in aTemplateString (see the table below) Directives “A,” “a,” and “Z” may be followed by a count, which gives the width of the resulting field. The remaining directives also may take a count, indicating the number of array elements to convert. If the count is an asterisk (“*
”), all remaining array elements will be converted. Any of the directives “sSiIlL
” may be followed by an underscore (“_
”) or exclamation mark (“!
”) to use the underlying platform’s native size for the specified type; otherwise, they use a platform-independent size. Spaces are ignored in the template string. See also String#unpack
.
a = [ "a", "b", "c" ] n = [ 65, 66, 67 ] a.pack("A3A3A3") #=> "a b c " a.pack("a3a3a3") #=> "a\000\000b\000\000c\000\000" n.pack("ccc") #=> "ABC"
If aBufferString is specified and its capacity is enough, pack
uses it as the buffer and returns it. When the offset is specified by the beginning of aTemplateString, the result is filled after the offset. If original contents of aBufferString exists and it’s longer than the offset, the rest of offsetOfBuffer are overwritten by the result. If it’s shorter, the gap is filled with “\0
”.
Note that “buffer:” option does not guarantee not to allocate memory in pack
. If the capacity of aBufferString is not enough, pack
allocates memory.

provides a unified clone
operation, for REXML::XPathParser
to use across multiple Object
types
Produces a shallow copy of obj—the instance variables of obj are copied, but not the objects they reference. clone
copies the frozen (unless :freeze keyword argument is given with a false value) and tainted state of obj. See also the discussion under Object#dup
.
class Klass attr_accessor :str end s1 = Klass.new #=> #<Klass:0x401b3a38> s1.str = "Hello" #=> "Hello" s2 = s1.clone #=> #<Klass:0x401b3998 @str="Hello"> s2.str[1,4] = "i" #=> "i" s1.inspect #=> "#<Klass:0x401b3a38 @str=\"Hi\">" s2.inspect #=> "#<Klass:0x401b3998 @str=\"Hi\">"
This method may have class-specific behavior. If so, that behavior will be documented under the #initialize_copy
method of the class.
Returns the receiver.
