Results for: "tally"

Scans the string until the pattern is matched. Advances the scan pointer if advance_pointer_p, otherwise not. Returns the matched string if return_string_p is true, otherwise returns the number of bytes advanced. This method does affect the match register.

Returns the subgroups in the most recent match at the given indices. If nothing was priorly matched, it returns nil.

s = StringScanner.new("Fri Dec 12 1975 14:39")
s.scan(/(\w+) (\w+) (\d+) /)       # -> "Fri Dec 12 "
s.values_at 0, -1, 5, 2            # -> ["Fri Dec 12 ", "12", nil, "Dec"]
s.scan(/(\w+) (\w+) (\d+) /)       # -> nil
s.values_at 0, -1, 5, 2            # -> nil

Executes the given block within the context of the receiver (obj). In order to set the context, the variable self is set to obj while the code is executing, giving the code access to obj’s instance variables. Arguments are passed as block parameters.

class KlassWithSecret
  def initialize
    @secret = 99
  end
end
k = KlassWithSecret.new
k.instance_exec(5) {|x| @secret+x }   #=> 104

Calls block once for each key in hsh, passing the value as a parameter.

If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.

h = { "a" => 100, "b" => 200 }
h.each_value {|value| puts value }

produces:

100
200

Returns a new hash with the results of running the block once for every value. This method does not change the keys.

h = { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3 }
h.transform_values {|v| v * v + 1 }  #=> { a: 2, b: 5, c: 10 }
h.transform_values(&:to_s)           #=> { a: "1", b: "2", c: "3" }
h.transform_values.with_index {|v, i| "#{v}.#{i}" }
                                     #=> { a: "1.0", b: "2.1", c: "3.2" }

If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.

Invokes the given block once for each value in hsh, replacing it with the new value returned by the block, and then returns hsh. This method does not change the keys.

h = { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3 }
h.transform_values! {|v| v * v + 1 }  #=> { a: 2, b: 5, c: 10 }
h.transform_values!(&:to_s)           #=> { a: "2", b: "5", c: "10" }
h.transform_values!.with_index {|v, i| "#{v}.#{i}" }
                                      #=> { a: "2.0", b: "5.1", c: "10.2" }

If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.

Return an array containing the values associated with the given keys. Also see Hash.select.

h = { "cat" => "feline", "dog" => "canine", "cow" => "bovine" }
h.values_at("cow", "cat")  #=> ["bovine", "feline"]

Returns an array containing the values associated with the given keys but also raises KeyError when one of keys can’t be found. Also see Hash#values_at and Hash#fetch.

h = { "cat" => "feline", "dog" => "canine", "cow" => "bovine" }

h.fetch_values("cow", "cat")                   #=> ["bovine", "feline"]
h.fetch_values("cow", "bird")                  # raises KeyError
h.fetch_values("cow", "bird") { |k| k.upcase } #=> ["bovine", "BIRD"]

Returns true if the given value is present for some key in hsh.

h = { "a" => 100, "b" => 200 }
h.value?(100)   #=> true
h.value?(999)   #=> false

Yields each environment variable value.

An Enumerator is returned if no block was given.

Returns an array containing the environment variable values associated with the given names. See also ENV.select.

Returns true if there is an environment variable with the given value.

Returns the external encoding for files read from ARGF as an Encoding object. The external encoding is the encoding of the text as stored in a file. Contrast with ARGF.internal_encoding, which is the encoding used to represent this text within Ruby.

To set the external encoding use ARGF.set_encoding.

For example:

ARGF.external_encoding  #=>  #<Encoding:UTF-8>

Returns the internal encoding for strings read from ARGF as an Encoding object.

If ARGF.set_encoding has been called with two encoding names, the second is returned. Otherwise, if Encoding.default_external has been set, that value is returned. Failing that, if a default external encoding was specified on the command-line, that value is used. If the encoding is unknown, nil is returned.

Synonym for ENV.

Returns true if illegal input is handled. See CSV::new for details.

Serialization support for the object returned by _getobj_.

Reinitializes delegation from a serialized object.

Returns true if the ipaddr is a link-local address. IPv4 addresses in 169.254.0.0/16 reserved by RFC 3927 and Link-Local IPv6 Unicast Addresses in fe80::/10 reserved by RFC 4291 are considered link-local.

Returns the names of the binding’s local variables as symbols.

def foo
  a = 1
  2.times do |n|
    binding.local_variables #=> [:a, :n]
  end
end

This method is the short version of the following code:

binding.eval("local_variables")
