Returns the value as an integer if possible (the imaginary part should be exactly zero).
Complex(1, 0).to_i #=> 1 Complex(1, 0.0).to_i # RangeError Complex(1, 2).to_i # RangeError
Returns the value as a float if possible (the imaginary part should be exactly zero).
Complex(1, 0).to_f #=> 1.0 Complex(1, 0.0).to_f # RangeError Complex(1, 2).to_f # RangeError
Returns the value as a rational if possible (the imaginary part should be exactly zero).
Complex(1, 0).to_r #=> (1/1) Complex(1, 0.0).to_r # RangeError Complex(1, 2).to_r # RangeError
See rationalize.
Returns the value as a BigDecimal.
The precision parameter is required for a rational complex number. This parameter is used to determine the number of significant digits for the result.
require 'bigdecimal' require 'bigdecimal/util' Complex(0.1234567, 0).to_d(4) # => 0.1235e0 Complex(Rational(22, 7), 0).to_d(3) # => 0.314e1
See also BigDecimal::new.
Returns zero as a complex.
Returns nil represented as a BigDecimal.
require 'bigdecimal' require 'bigdecimal/util' nil.to_d # => 0.0
Always returns the empty string.
Returns zero as a rational.
Returns the value as a complex.
Returns self.
Returns an array; [num, 0].
Returns an array; [num, 0].
Returns true if num is a real number (i.e. not Complex).
Returns the largest number less than or equal to num with a precision of ndigits decimal digits (default: 0).
Numeric implements this by converting its value to a Float and invoking Float#floor.
Invokes the given block with the sequence of numbers starting at num, incremented by step (defaulted to 1) on each call.
The loop finishes when the value to be passed to the block is greater than limit (if step is positive) or less than limit (if step is negative), where limit is defaulted to infinity.
In the recommended keyword argument style, either or both of step and limit (default infinity) can be omitted. In the fixed position argument style, zero as a step (i.e. num.step(limit, 0)) is not allowed for historical compatibility reasons.
If all the arguments are integers, the loop operates using an integer counter.
If any of the arguments are floating point numbers, all are converted to floats, and the loop is executed floor(n + n*Float::EPSILON) + 1 times, where n = (limit - num)/step.
Otherwise, the loop starts at num, uses either the less-than (<) or greater-than (>) operator to compare the counter against limit, and increments itself using the + operator.
If no block is given, an Enumerator is returned instead. Especially, the enumerator is an Enumerator::ArithmeticSequence if both limit and step are kind of Numeric or nil.
For example:
p 1.step.take(4) p 10.step(by: -1).take(4) 3.step(to: 5) {|i| print i, " " } 1.step(10, 2) {|i| print i, " " } Math::E.step(to: Math::PI, by: 0.2) {|f| print f, " " }
Will produce:
[1, 2, 3, 4] [10, 9, 8, 7] 3 4 5 1 3 5 7 9 2.718281828459045 2.9182818284590453 3.118281828459045
Returns a complex which denotes the string form. The parser ignores leading whitespaces and trailing garbage. Any digit sequences can be separated by an underscore. Returns zero for null or garbage string.
'9'.to_c #=> (9+0i) '2.5'.to_c #=> (2.5+0i) '2.5/1'.to_c #=> ((5/2)+0i) '-3/2'.to_c #=> ((-3/2)+0i) '-i'.to_c #=> (0-1i) '45i'.to_c #=> (0+45i) '3-4i'.to_c #=> (3-4i) '-4e2-4e-2i'.to_c #=> (-400.0-0.04i) '-0.0-0.0i'.to_c #=> (-0.0-0.0i) '1/2+3/4i'.to_c #=> ((1/2)+(3/4)*i) 'ruby'.to_c #=> (0+0i)

Returns the result of interpreting leading characters in str as a BigDecimal.
