Specifies the handling of signals. The first parameter is a signal name (a string such as “SIGALRM”, “SIGUSR1”, and so on) or a signal number. The characters “SIG” may be omitted from the signal name. The command or block specifies code to be run when the signal is raised. If the command is the string “IGNORE” or “SIG_IGN”, the signal will be ignored. If the command is “DEFAULT” or “SIG_DFL”, the Ruby’s default handler will be invoked. If the command is “EXIT”, the script will be terminated by the signal. If the command is “SYSTEM_DEFAULT”, the operating system’s default handler will be invoked. Otherwise, the given command or block will be run. The special signal name “EXIT” or signal number zero will be invoked just prior to program termination. trap returns the previous handler for the given signal.
Signal.trap(0, proc { puts "Terminating: #{$$}" }) Signal.trap("CLD") { puts "Child died" } fork && Process.wait
produces:
Terminating: 27461 Child died Terminating: 27460
Returns the first element, or the first n elements, of the enumerable. If the enumerable is empty, the first form returns nil, and the second form returns an empty array.
%w[foo bar baz].first #=> "foo" %w[foo bar baz].first(2) #=> ["foo", "bar"] %w[foo bar baz].first(10) #=> ["foo", "bar", "baz"] [].first #=> nil [].first(10) #=> []
Takes one element from enum and merges corresponding elements from each args. This generates a sequence of n-element arrays, where n is one more than the count of arguments. The length of the resulting sequence will be enum#size. If the size of any argument is less than enum#size, nil values are supplied. If a block is given, it is invoked for each output array, otherwise an array of arrays is returned.
a = [ 4, 5, 6 ] b = [ 7, 8, 9 ] a.zip(b) #=> [[4, 7], [5, 8], [6, 9]] [1, 2, 3].zip(a, b) #=> [[1, 4, 7], [2, 5, 8], [3, 6, 9]] [1, 2].zip(a, b) #=> [[1, 4, 7], [2, 5, 8]] a.zip([1, 2], [8]) #=> [[4, 1, 8], [5, 2, nil], [6, nil, nil]] c = [] a.zip(b) { |x, y| c << x + y } #=> nil c #=> [11, 13, 15]
Enables coverage measurement.
Returns system temporary directory; typically “/tmp”.
Returns a Digest subclass by name
require 'openssl' OpenSSL::Digest("MD5") # => OpenSSL::Digest::MD5 Digest("Foo") # => NameError: wrong constant name Foo
Returns a Digest subclass by name
require 'openssl' OpenSSL::Digest("MD5") # => OpenSSL::Digest::MD5 Digest("Foo") # => NameError: wrong constant name Foo
Returns self, for backward compatibility.
Gzip the given string. Valid values of level are Zlib::NO_COMPRESSION, Zlib::BEST_SPEED, Zlib::BEST_COMPRESSION, Zlib::DEFAULT_COMPRESSION (default), or an integer from 0 to 9.
This method is almost equivalent to the following code:
def gzip(string, level: nil, strategy: nil) sio = StringIO.new sio.binmode gz = Zlib::GzipWriter.new(sio, level, strategy) gz.write(string) gz.close sio.string end
See also Zlib.gunzip
Decode the given gzipped string.
This method is almost equivalent to the following code:
def gunzip(string) sio = StringIO.new(string) gz = Zlib::GzipReader.new(sio, encoding: Encoding::ASCII_8BIT) gz.read ensure gz&.close end
See also Zlib.gzip
Return true if the named file exists.
file_name can be an IO object.
“file exists” means that stat() or fstat() system call is successful.
Deprecated method. Don’t use.
Returns true if the named file is writable by the effective user and group id of this process. See eaccess(3).
Returns true if the named file has the sticky bit set.
file_name can be an IO object.
Initiates garbage collection, unless manually disabled.
This method is defined with keyword arguments that default to true:
def GC.start(full_mark: true, immediate_sweep: true); end
Use full_mark: false to perform a minor GC. Use immediate_sweep: false to defer sweeping (use lazy sweep).
Note: These keyword arguments are implementation and version dependent. They are not guaranteed to be future-compatible, and may be ignored if the underlying implementation does not support them.
Returns a Hash containing information about the GC.
The hash includes information about internal statistics about GC such as:
{
:count=>0,
:heap_allocated_pages=>24,
:heap_sorted_length=>24,
:heap_allocatable_pages=>0,
:heap_available_slots=>9783,
:heap_live_slots=>7713,
:heap_free_slots=>2070,
:heap_final_slots=>0,
:heap_marked_slots=>0,
:heap_eden_pages=>24,
:heap_tomb_pages=>0,
:total_allocated_pages=>24,
:total_freed_pages=>0,
:total_allocated_objects=>7796,
:total_freed_objects=>83,

}
The contents of the hash are implementation specific and may be changed in the future.
This method is only expected to work on C Ruby.
