Returns the header field corresponding to the case-insensitive key. Returns the default value args, or the result of the block, or raises an IndexError if there’s no header field named key See Hash#fetch
Returns “true” if the “transfer-encoding” header is present and set to “chunked”. This is an HTTP/1.1 feature, allowing the content to be sent in “chunks” without at the outset stating the entire content length.
returns a charset parameter in Content-Type field. It is downcased for canonicalization.
If charset parameter is not given but a block is given, the block is called and its result is returned. It can be used to guess charset.
If charset parameter and block is not given, nil is returned except text type. In that case, “utf-8” is returned as defined by RFC6838 4.2.1
SecureRandom.choose generates a string that randomly draws from a source array of characters.
The argument source specifies the array of characters from which to generate the string. The argument n specifies the length, in characters, of the string to be generated.
The result may contain whatever characters are in the source array.
require 'securerandom' SecureRandom.choose([*'l'..'r'], 16) #=> "lmrqpoonmmlqlron" SecureRandom.choose([*'0'..'9'], 5) #=> "27309"
If a secure random number generator is not available, NotImplementedError is raised.
Switch the effective and real user IDs of the current process. If a block is given, the user IDs will be switched back after the block is executed. Returns the new effective user ID if called without a block, and the return value of the block if one is given.
Switch the effective and real group IDs of the current process. If a block is given, the group IDs will be switched back after the block is executed. Returns the new effective group ID if called without a block, and the return value of the block if one is given.
Same as Array#each, but passes the index of the element instead of the element itself.
An Enumerator is returned if no block is given.
a = [ "a", "b", "c" ] a.each_index {|x| print x, " -- " }
produces:
0 -- 1 -- 2 --
Same as Array#each, but traverses self in reverse order.
a = [ "a", "b", "c" ] a.reverse_each {|x| print x, " " }
produces:
c b a
By using binary search, finds an index of a value from this array which meets the given condition in O(log n) where n is the size of the array.
It supports two modes, depending on the nature of the block. They are exactly the same as in the case of the bsearch method, with the only difference being that this method returns the index of the element instead of the element itself. For more details consult the documentation for bsearch.
Iterates the given block over all prime numbers.
See Prime#each for more details.
Returns the Symbol corresponding to str, creating the symbol if it did not previously exist. See Symbol#id2name.
"Koala".intern #=> :Koala s = 'cat'.to_sym #=> :cat s == :cat #=> true s = '@cat'.to_sym #=> :@cat s == :@cat #=> true
This can also be used to create symbols that cannot be represented using the :xxx notation.
'cat and dog'.to_sym #=> :"cat and dog"
Splits str using the supplied parameter as the record separator ($/ by default), passing each substring in turn to the supplied block. If a zero-length record separator is supplied, the string is split into paragraphs delimited by multiple successive newlines.
If chomp is true, separator will be removed from the end of each line.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
"hello\nworld".each_line {|s| p s} # prints: # "hello\n" # "world" "hello\nworld".each_line('l') {|s| p s} # prints: # "hel" # "l" # "o\nworl" # "d" "hello\n\n\nworld".each_line('') {|s| p s} # prints # "hello\n\n" # "world" "hello\nworld".each_line(chomp: true) {|s| p s} # prints: # "hello" # "world" "hello\nworld".each_line('l', chomp: true) {|s| p s} # prints: # "he" # "" # "o\nwor" # "d"
Passes each byte in str to the given block, or returns an enumerator if no block is given.
"hello".each_byte {|c| print c, ' ' }
produces:
104 101 108 108 111
Passes the Integer ordinal of each character in str, also known as a codepoint when applied to Unicode strings to the given block. For encodings other than UTF-8/UTF-16(BE|LE)/UTF-32(BE|LE), values are directly derived from the binary representation of each character.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
"hello\u0639".each_codepoint {|c| print c, ' ' }
produces:
104 101 108 108 111 1593
Returns the locale charmap name. It returns nil if no appropriate information.
Debian GNU/Linux LANG=C Encoding.locale_charmap #=> "ANSI_X3.4-1968" LANG=ja_JP.EUC-JP Encoding.locale_charmap #=> "EUC-JP" SunOS 5 LANG=C Encoding.locale_charmap #=> "646" LANG=ja Encoding.locale_charmap #=> "eucJP"
The result is highly platform dependent. So Encoding.find(Encoding.locale_charmap) may cause an error. If you need some encoding object even for unknown locale, Encoding.find(“locale”) can be used.
Calls the block once for each value string in the database. Returns self.
Calls the block once for each key string in the database. Returns self.
Calls the block once for each [key, value] pair in the database. Returns self.
Yields the name and value of each struct member in order. If no block is given an enumerator is returned.
Customer = Struct.new(:name, :address, :zip) joe = Customer.new("Joe Smith", "123 Maple, Anytown NC", 12345) joe.each_pair {|name, value| puts("#{name} => #{value}") }
Produces:
name => Joe Smith address => 123 Maple, Anytown NC zip => 12345
Executes the block for every line in ios, where lines are separated by sep. ios must be opened for reading or an IOError will be raised.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
f = File.new("testfile") f.each {|line| puts "#{f.lineno}: #{line}" }
produces:
1: This is line one 2: This is line two 3: This is line three 4: And so on...
See IO.readlines for details about getline_args.
Calls the given block once for each byte (0..255) in ios, passing the byte as an argument. The stream must be opened for reading or an IOError will be raised.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
f = File.new("testfile") checksum = 0 f.each_byte {|x| checksum ^= x } #=> #<File:testfile> checksum #=> 12
