Returns the Ruby source filename and line number containing this proc or nil
if this proc was not defined in Ruby (i.e. native).
Returns the Ruby source filename and line number containing this method or nil if this method was not defined in Ruby (i.e. native).
Returns the Ruby source filename and line number containing this method or nil if this method was not defined in Ruby (i.e. native).
Returns the execution stack for the target thread—an array containing backtrace location objects.
See Thread::Backtrace::Location
for more information.
This method behaves similarly to Kernel#caller_locations
except it applies to a specific thread.
Converts block to a Proc
object (and therefore binds it at the point of call) and registers it for execution when the program exits. If multiple handlers are registered, they are executed in reverse order of registration.
def do_at_exit(str1) at_exit { print str1 } end at_exit { puts "cruel world" } do_at_exit("goodbye ") exit
produces:
goodbye cruel world
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 current execution stack—an array containing backtrace location objects.
See Thread::Backtrace::Location
for more information.
The optional start parameter determines the number of initial stack entries to omit from the top of the stack.
A second optional length
parameter can be used to limit how many entries are returned from the stack.
Returns nil
if start is greater than the size of current execution stack.
Optionally you can pass a range, which will return an array containing the entries within the specified range.
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]
Returns the object in enum that gives the maximum value from the given block.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
a = %w(albatross dog horse) a.max_by { |x| x.length } #=> "albatross"
If the n
argument is given, maximum n
elements are returned as an array. These n
elements are sorted by the value from the given block, in descending order.
a = %w[albatross dog horse] a.max_by(2) {|x| x.length } #=> ["albatross", "horse"]
enum.max_by(n) can be used to implement weighted random sampling. Following example implements and use Enumerable#wsample.
module Enumerable # weighted random sampling. # # Pavlos S. Efraimidis, Paul G. Spirakis # Weighted random sampling with a reservoir # Information Processing Letters # Volume 97, Issue 5 (16 March 2006) def wsample(n) self.max_by(n) {|v| rand ** (1.0/yield(v)) } end end e = (-20..20).to_a*10000 a = e.wsample(20000) {|x| Math.exp(-(x/5.0)**2) # normal distribution } # a is 20000 samples from e. p a.length #=> 20000 h = a.group_by {|x| x } -10.upto(10) {|x| puts "*" * (h[x].length/30.0).to_i if h[x] } #=> * # *** # ****** # *********** # ****************** # ***************************** # ***************************************** # **************************************************** # *************************************************************** # ******************************************************************** # *********************************************************************** # *********************************************************************** # ************************************************************** # **************************************************** # *************************************** # *************************** # ****************** # *********** # ******* # *** # *
Builds a temporary array and traverses that array in reverse order.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
(1..3).reverse_each { |v| p v }
produces:
3 2 1
Calls block once for each element in self
, passing that element as a parameter, converting multiple values from yield to an array.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
class Foo include Enumerable def each yield 1 yield 1, 2 yield end end Foo.new.each_entry{ |o| p o }
produces:
1 [1, 2] nil
Iterates the given block for each slice of <n> elements. If no block is given, returns an enumerator.
(1..10).each_slice(3) { |a| p a } # outputs below [1, 2, 3] [4, 5, 6] [7, 8, 9] [10]
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]
Creates an enumerator for each chunked elements. The beginnings of chunks are defined by the block.
This method split each chunk using adjacent elements, elt_before and elt_after, in the receiver enumerator. This method split chunks between elt_before and elt_after where the block returns false
.
The block is called the length of the receiver enumerator minus one.
The result enumerator yields the chunked elements as an array. So each
method can be called as follows:
enum.chunk_while { |elt_before, elt_after| bool }.each { |ary| ... }
Other methods of the Enumerator
class and Enumerable
module, such as to_a
, map
, etc., are also usable.
For example, one-by-one increasing subsequence can be chunked as follows:
a = [1,2,4,9,10,11,12,15,16,19,20,21] b = a.chunk_while {|i, j| i+1 == j } p b.to_a #=> [[1, 2], [4], [9, 10, 11, 12], [15, 16], [19, 20, 21]] c = b.map {|a| a.length < 3 ? a : "#{a.first}-#{a.last}" } p c #=> [[1, 2], [4], "9-12", [15, 16], "19-21"] d = c.join(",") p d #=> "1,2,4,9-12,15,16,19-21"
Increasing (non-decreasing) subsequence can be chunked as follows:
a = [0, 9, 2, 2, 3, 2, 7, 5, 9, 5] p a.chunk_while {|i, j| i <= j }.to_a #=> [[0, 9], [2, 2, 3], [2, 7], [5, 9], [5]]
Adjacent evens and odds can be chunked as follows: (Enumerable#chunk
is another way to do it.)
a = [7, 5, 9, 2, 0, 7, 9, 4, 2, 0] p a.chunk_while {|i, j| i.even? == j.even? }.to_a #=> [[7, 5, 9], [2, 0], [7, 9], [4, 2, 0]]
Enumerable#slice_when
does the same, except splitting when the block returns true
instead of false
.
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.
Enters exclusive section and executes the block. Leaves the exclusive section automatically when the block exits. See example under MonitorMixin
.
Returns the source file origin from the given object
.
See ::trace_object_allocations
for more information and examples.
Returns the original line from source for from the given object
.
See ::trace_object_allocations
for more information and examples.
Calls the block once for each living, nonimmediate object in this Ruby process. If module is specified, calls the block for only those classes or modules that match (or are a subclass of) module. Returns the number of objects found. Immediate objects (Fixnum
s, Symbol
s true
, false
, and nil
) are never returned. In the example below, each_object returns both the numbers we defined and several constants defined in the Math
module.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
a = 102.7 b = 95 # Won't be returned c = 12345678987654321 count = ObjectSpace.each_object(Numeric) {|x| p x } puts "Total count: #{count}"
produces:
12345678987654321 102.7 2.71828182845905 3.14159265358979 2.22044604925031e-16 1.7976931348623157e+308 2.2250738585072e-308 Total count: 7
