provides a unified clone operation, for REXML::XPathParser to use across multiple Object types
Returns an array with both numeric and float represented as Float objects.
This is achieved by converting numeric to a Float.
1.2.coerce(3) #=> [3.0, 1.2] 2.5.coerce(1.1) #=> [1.1, 2.5]
Returns true if float is 0.0.
Returns true if float is greater than 0.
Returns true if float is less than 0.
Returns the numerator. The result is machine dependent.
n = 0.3.numerator #=> 5404319552844595 d = 0.3.denominator #=> 18014398509481984 n.fdiv(d) #=> 0.3
See also Float#denominator.
Raises an exception in the fiber at the point at which the last Fiber.yield was called, or at the start if neither resume nor raise were called before.
With no arguments, raises a RuntimeError. With a single String argument, raises a RuntimeError with the string as a message. Otherwise, the first parameter should be the name of an Exception class (or an object that returns an Exception object when sent an exception message). The optional second parameter sets the message associated with the exception, and the third parameter is an array of callback information. Exceptions are caught by the rescue clause of begin...end blocks.
Transfer control to another fiber, resuming it from where it last stopped or starting it if it was not resumed before. The calling fiber will be suspended much like in a call to Fiber.yield. You need to require 'fiber' before using this method.
The fiber which receives the transfer call is treats it much like a resume call. Arguments passed to transfer are treated like those passed to resume.
You cannot call resume on a fiber that has been transferred to. If you call transfer on a fiber, and later call resume on the the fiber, a FiberError will be raised. Once you call transfer on a fiber, the only way to resume processing the fiber is to call transfer on it again.
Example:
fiber1 = Fiber.new do puts "In Fiber 1" Fiber.yield puts "In Fiber 1 again" end fiber2 = Fiber.new do puts "In Fiber 2" fiber1.transfer puts "Never see this message" end fiber3 = Fiber.new do puts "In Fiber 3" end fiber2.resume fiber3.resume fiber1.resume rescue (p $!) fiber1.transfer
produces
In Fiber 2 In Fiber 1 In Fiber 3 #<FiberError: cannot resume transferred Fiber> In Fiber 1 again
The optional encoding keyword argument specifies the encoding of the directory. If not specified, the filesystem encoding is used.
With no block, open is a synonym for Dir::new. If a block is present, it is passed aDir as a parameter. The directory is closed at the end of the block, and Dir::open returns the value of the block.
Seeks to a particular location in dir. integer must be a value returned by Dir#tell.
d = Dir.new("testdir") #=> #<Dir:0x401b3c40> d.read #=> "." i = d.tell #=> 12 d.read #=> ".." d.seek(i) #=> #<Dir:0x401b3c40> d.read #=> ".."
Closes the directory stream. Calling this method on closed Dir object is ignored since Ruby 2.3.
d = Dir.new("testdir") d.close #=> nil
Returns true if the named file is an empty directory, false if it is not a directory or non-empty.
Returns the last access time for the named file as a Time object.
file_name can be an IO object.
File.atime("testfile") #=> Wed Apr 09 08:51:48 CDT 2003
Returns the modification time for the named file as a Time object.
file_name can be an IO object.
File.mtime("testfile") #=> Tue Apr 08 12:58:04 CDT 2003
Returns the change time for the named file (the time at which directory information about the file was changed, not the file itself).
file_name can be an IO object.
Note that on Windows (NTFS), returns creation time (birth time).
File.ctime("testfile") #=> Wed Apr 09 08:53:13 CDT 2003
Sets the access and modification times of each named file to the first two arguments. If a file is a symlink, this method acts upon its referent rather than the link itself; for the inverse behavior see File.lutime. Returns the number of file names in the argument list.
Sets the access and modification times of each named file to the first two arguments. If a file is a symlink, this method acts upon the link itself as opposed to its referent; for the inverse behavior, see File.utime. Returns the number of file names in the argument list.
Returns the real (absolute) pathname of pathname in the actual filesystem not containing symlinks or useless dots.
If dir_string is given, it is used as a base directory for interpreting relative pathname instead of the current directory.
All components of the pathname must exist when this method is called.
Returns the real (absolute) pathname of pathname in the actual filesystem. The real pathname doesn’t contain symlinks or useless dots.
If dir_string is given, it is used as a base directory for interpreting relative pathname instead of the current directory.
The last component of the real pathname can be nonexistent.
Returns the last component of the filename given in file_name (after first stripping trailing separators), which can be formed using both File::SEPARATOR and File::ALT_SEPARATOR as the separator when File::ALT_SEPARATOR is not nil. If suffix is given and present at the end of file_name, it is removed. If suffix is “.*”, any extension will be removed.
File.basename("/home/gumby/work/ruby.rb") #=> "ruby.rb" File.basename("/home/gumby/work/ruby.rb", ".rb") #=> "ruby" File.basename("/home/gumby/work/ruby.rb", ".*") #=> "ruby"
Returns the string representation of the path
File.path("/dev/null") #=> "/dev/null" File.path(Pathname.new("/tmp")) #=> "/tmp"
Returns the last access time (a Time object) for file, or epoch if file has not been accessed.
File.new("testfile").atime #=> Wed Dec 31 18:00:00 CST 1969
Returns the modification time for file.
File.new("testfile").mtime #=> Wed Apr 09 08:53:14 CDT 2003
