Set the changed state of this object. Notifications will be sent only if the changed state is true.
state
Boolean indicating the changed state of this Observable.
Returns true if this object’s state has been changed since the last notify_observers call.
The standard configuration object for gems.
Use the given configuration object (which implements the ConfigFile protocol) as the standard configuration object.
The path to the data directory specified by the gem name. If the package is not available as a gem, return nil.

Calculates the logarithmic gamma of x and the sign of gamma of x.
Math.lgamma(x) is same as
[Math.log(Math.gamma(x).abs), Math.gamma(x) < 0 ? -1 : 1]
but avoid overflow by Math.gamma(x) for large x.
Math.lgamma(0) #=> [Infinity, 1]
Some operating systems retain the status of terminated child processes until the parent collects that status (normally using some variant of wait()). If the parent never collects this status, the child stays around as a zombie process. Process::detach prevents this by setting up a separate Ruby thread whose sole job is to reap the status of the process pid when it terminates. Use detach only when you do not intend to explicitly wait for the child to terminate.
The waiting thread returns the exit status of the detached process when it terminates, so you can use Thread#join to know the result. If specified pid is not a valid child process ID, the thread returns nil immediately.
The waiting thread has pid method which returns the pid.
In this first example, we don’t reap the first child process, so it appears as a zombie in the process status display.
p1 = fork { sleep 0.1 } p2 = fork { sleep 0.2 } Process.waitpid(p2) sleep 2 system("ps -ho pid,state -p #{p1}")
produces:
27389 Z
In the next example, Process::detach is used to reap the child automatically.
p1 = fork { sleep 0.1 } p2 = fork { sleep 0.2 } Process.detach(p1) Process.waitpid(p2) sleep 2 system("ps -ho pid,state -p #{p1}")
(produces no output)
