Returns a Method of superclass which would be called when super is used or nil if there is no method on superclass.
Returns a Method of superclass which would be called when super is used or nil if there is no method on superclass.
Returns an array of the names of the thread-local variables (as Symbols).
thr = Thread.new do Thread.current.thread_variable_set(:cat, 'meow') Thread.current.thread_variable_set("dog", 'woof') end thr.join #=> #<Thread:0x401b3f10 dead> thr.thread_variables #=> [:dog, :cat]
Note that these are not fiber local variables. Please see Thread#[] and Thread#thread_variable_get for more details.
Returns true if the given string (or symbol) exists as a thread-local variable.
me = Thread.current me.thread_variable_set(:oliver, "a") me.thread_variable?(:oliver) #=> true me.thread_variable?(:stanley) #=> false
Note that these are not fiber local variables. Please see Thread#[] and Thread#thread_variable_get for more details.
Returns an arbitrary seed value. This is used by Random.new when no seed value is specified as an argument.
Random.new_seed #=> 115032730400174366788466674494640623225
Returns the number of threads waiting on the queue.
Returns the number of threads waiting on the queue.
Compiled source code (String) on *eval methods on the :script_compiled event. If loaded from a file, it will return nil.
Returns an array of the names of global variables.
global_variables.grep /std/ #=> [:$stdin, :$stdout, :$stderr]
Controls tracing of assignments to global variables. The parameter symbol identifies the variable (as either a string name or a symbol identifier). cmd (which may be a string or a Proc object) or block is executed whenever the variable is assigned. The block or Proc object receives the variable’s new value as a parameter. Also see Kernel::untrace_var.
trace_var :$_, proc {|v| puts "$_ is now '#{v}'" } $_ = "hello" $_ = ' there'
produces:
$_ is now 'hello' $_ is now ' there'
Removes tracing for the specified command on the given global variable and returns nil. If no command is specified, removes all tracing for that variable and returns an array containing the commands actually removed.
Ruby tries to load the library named string relative to the requiring file’s path. If the file’s path cannot be determined a LoadError is raised. If a file is loaded true is returned and false otherwise.
Returns the names of the current local variables.
fred = 1 for i in 1..10 # ... end local_variables #=> [:fred, :i]
Returns a new array containing the truthy results (everything except false or nil) of running the block for every element in enum.
If no block is given, an Enumerator is returned instead.
(1..10).filter_map { |i| i * 2 if i.even? } #=> [4, 8, 12, 16, 20]
Returns a new array with the concatenated results of running block once for every element in enum.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
[1, 2, 3, 4].flat_map { |e| [e, -e] } #=> [1, -1, 2, -2, 3, -3, 4, -4] [[1, 2], [3, 4]].flat_map { |e| e + [100] } #=> [1, 2, 100, 3, 4, 100]
Iterates the given block for each array of consecutive <n> elements. If no block is given, returns an enumerator.
e.g.:
(1..10).each_cons(3) { |a| p a } # outputs below [1, 2, 3] [2, 3, 4] [3, 4, 5] [4, 5, 6] [5, 6, 7] [6, 7, 8] [7, 8, 9] [8, 9, 10]
Drops elements up to, but not including, the first element for which the block returns nil or false and returns an array containing the remaining elements.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 0] a.drop_while { |i| i < 3 } #=> [3, 4, 5, 0]
Creates an enumerator for each chunked elements. The ends of chunks are defined by pattern and the block.
If pattern === elt returns true or the block returns true for the element, the element is end of a chunk.
The === and block is called from the first element to the last element of enum.
The result enumerator yields the chunked elements as an array. So each method can be called as follows:
enum.slice_after(pattern).each { |ary| ... }
enum.slice_after { |elt| bool }.each { |ary| ... }
Other methods of the Enumerator class and Enumerable module, such as map, etc., are also usable.
For example, continuation lines (lines end with backslash) can be concatenated as follows:
lines = ["foo\n", "bar\\\n", "baz\n", "\n", "qux\n"] e = lines.slice_after(/(?<!\\)\n\z/) p e.to_a #=> [["foo\n"], ["bar\\\n", "baz\n"], ["\n"], ["qux\n"]] p e.map {|ll| ll[0...-1].map {|l| l.sub(/\\\n\z/, "") }.join + ll.last } #=>["foo\n", "barbaz\n", "\n", "qux\n"]
Makes a set from the enumerable object with given arguments. Needs to +require “set”+ to use this method.
Returns the last Error of the current executing Thread or nil if none
Sets the last Error of the current executing Thread to error
Generate a JSON document from the Ruby data structure obj and return it. This method disables the checks for circles in Ruby objects.
WARNING: Be careful not to pass any Ruby data structures with circles as obj argument because this will cause JSON to go into an infinite loop.
Generate a JSON document from the Ruby data structure obj and return it. The returned document is a prettier form of the document returned by unparse.
The opts argument can be used to configure the generator. See the generate method for a more detailed explanation.
