Results for: "String# "

Returns the object in ary with the minimum value. The first form assumes all objects implement Comparable; the second uses the block to return a <=> b.

ary = %w(albatross dog horse)
ary.min                                   #=> "albatross"
ary.min {|a, b| a.length <=> b.length}    #=> "dog"

If the n argument is given, minimum n elements are returned as an array.

ary = %w[albatross dog horse]
ary.min(2)                                  #=> ["albatross", "dog"]
ary.min(2) {|a, b| a.length <=> b.length }  #=> ["dog", "horse"]

Returns a two element array which contains the minimum and the maximum value in the array.

Can be given an optional block to override the default comparison method a <=> b.

When invoked with a block, yields all combinations of length n of elements from the array and then returns the array itself.

The implementation makes no guarantees about the order in which the combinations are yielded.

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

Examples:

a = [1, 2, 3, 4]
a.combination(1).to_a  #=> [[1],[2],[3],[4]]
a.combination(2).to_a  #=> [[1,2],[1,3],[1,4],[2,3],[2,4],[3,4]]
a.combination(3).to_a  #=> [[1,2,3],[1,2,4],[1,3,4],[2,3,4]]
a.combination(4).to_a  #=> [[1,2,3,4]]
a.combination(0).to_a  #=> [[]] # one combination of length 0
a.combination(5).to_a  #=> []   # no combinations of length 5

Builds a command line string from an argument list array joining all elements escaped for the Bourne shell and separated by a space.

See Shellwords.shelljoin for details.

Returns a Hash containing implementation-dependent counters inside the VM.

This hash includes information about method/constant cache serials:

{
  :global_method_state=>251,
  :global_constant_state=>481,
  :class_serial=>9029
}

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.

Returns a Digest subclass by name in a thread-safe manner even when on-demand loading is involved.

require 'digest'

Digest("MD5")
# => Digest::MD5

Digest(:SHA256)
# => Digest::SHA256

Digest(:Foo)
# => LoadError: library not found for class Digest::Foo -- digest/foo

Returns object. This method is deprecated and will be removed in Ruby 3.2.

Returns false. This method is deprecated and will be removed in Ruby 3.2.

Returns object. This method is deprecated and will be removed in Ruby 3.2.

Returns a string containing a human-readable representation of obj. The default inspect shows the object’s class name, an encoding of the object id, and a list of the instance variables and their values (by calling inspect on each of them). User defined classes should override this method to provide a better representation of obj. When overriding this method, it should return a string whose encoding is compatible with the default external encoding.

[ 1, 2, 3..4, 'five' ].inspect   #=> "[1, 2, 3..4, \"five\"]"
Time.new.inspect                 #=> "2008-03-08 19:43:39 +0900"

class Foo
end
Foo.new.inspect                  #=> "#<Foo:0x0300c868>"

class Bar
  def initialize
    @bar = 1
  end
end
Bar.new.inspect                  #=> "#<Bar:0x0300c868 @bar=1>"

Returns true if self is a prime number, else returns false.

Since int is already an Integer, this always returns true.

Returns int truncated (toward zero) to a precision of ndigits decimal digits (default: 0).

When the precision is negative, the returned value is an integer with at least ndigits.abs trailing zeros.

Returns self when ndigits is zero or positive.

1.truncate           #=> 1
1.truncate(2)        #=> 1
18.truncate(-1)      #=> 10
(-18).truncate(-1)   #=> -10

Returns the remainder after dividing int by numeric.

x.remainder(y) means x-y*(x/y).truncate.

5.remainder(3)     #=> 2
-5.remainder(3)    #=> -2
5.remainder(-3)    #=> 2
-5.remainder(-3)   #=> -2
5.remainder(1.5)   #=> 0.5

See Numeric#divmod.

Returns a string containing the place-value representation of int with radix base (between 2 and 36).

12345.to_s       #=> "12345"
12345.to_s(2)    #=> "11000000111001"
12345.to_s(8)    #=> "30071"
12345.to_s(10)   #=> "12345"
12345.to_s(16)   #=> "3039"
12345.to_s(36)   #=> "9ix"
78546939656932.to_s(36)  #=> "rubyrules"

Returns 1.

Returns a complex object which denotes the given rectangular form.

Complex.rectangular(1, 2)  #=> (1+2i)

Returns the imaginary part.

Complex(7).imaginary      #=> 0
Complex(9, -4).imaginary  #=> -4

Returns the angle part of its polar form.

Complex.polar(3, Math::PI/2).arg  #=> 1.5707963267948966

Returns an array; [cmp.real, cmp.imag].

Complex(1, 2).rectangular  #=> [1, 2]

Returns the denominator (lcm of both denominator - real and imag).

See numerator.

Returns the value as a string for inspection.

Complex(2).inspect                       #=> "(2+0i)"
Complex('-8/6').inspect                  #=> "((-4/3)+0i)"
Complex('1/2i').inspect                  #=> "(0+(1/2)*i)"
Complex(0, Float::INFINITY).inspect      #=> "(0+Infinity*i)"
Complex(Float::NAN, Float::NAN).inspect  #=> "(NaN+NaN*i)"

Returns true if cmp‘s real and imaginary parts are both finite numbers, otherwise returns false.

Always returns the string “nil”.

Returns zero.
