Returns the character position of the scan pointer. In the ‘reset’ position, this value is zero. In the ‘terminated’ position (i.e. the string is exhausted), this value is the size of the string.
In short, it’s a 0-based index into the string.
s = StringScanner.new("abcädeföghi") s.charpos # -> 0 s.scan_until(/ä/) # -> "abcä" s.pos # -> 5 s.charpos # -> 4
Returns running OLE Automation object or WIN32OLE object from moniker. 1st argument should be OLE program id or class id or moniker.
WIN32OLE.connect('Excel.Application') # => WIN32OLE object which represents running Excel.
Returns array of WIN32OLE_VARIABLE objects which represent variables defined in OLE class.
tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library', 'XlSheetType') vars = tobj.variables vars.each do |v| puts "#{v.name} = #{v.value}" end The result of above sample script is follows: xlChart = -4109 xlDialogSheet = -4116 xlExcel4IntlMacroSheet = 4 xlExcel4MacroSheet = 3 xlWorksheet = -4167
Returns the number which represents variable kind.
tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library', 'XlSheetType')
variables = tobj.variables
variables.each do |variable|
puts "#{variable.name} #{variable.varkind}"
end
The result of above script is following:
xlChart 2
xlDialogSheet 2
xlExcel4IntlMacroSheet 2
xlExcel4MacroSheet 2
xlWorksheet 2
Returns OLE variant type.
obj = WIN32OLE_VARIANT.new("string") obj.vartype # => WIN32OLE::VARIANT::VT_BSTR
Removes all hash entries; returns self.
Returns a new 2-element Array consisting of the key and value of the first-found entry whose value is == to value (see Entry Order):
h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 1} h.rassoc(1) # => [:bar, 1]
Returns nil if no such value found.
Removes every environment variable; returns ENV:
ENV.replace('foo' => '0', 'bar' => '1') ENV.size # => 2 ENV.clear # => ENV ENV.size # => 0
Returns a 2-element Array containing the name and value of the first found environment variable that has value value, if one exists:
ENV.replace('foo' => '0', 'bar' => '0') ENV.rassoc('0') # => ["bar", "0"]
The order in which environment variables are examined is OS-dependent. See About Ordering.
Returns nil if there is no such environment variable.
Returns the ARGV array, which contains the arguments passed to your script, one per element.
For example:
$ ruby argf.rb -v glark.txt ARGF.argv #=> ["-v", "glark.txt"]
Reads at most maxlen bytes from the ARGF stream.
If the optional outbuf argument is present, it must reference a String, which will receive the data. The outbuf will contain only the received data after the method call even if it is not empty at the beginning.
It raises EOFError on end of ARGF stream. Since ARGF stream is a concatenation of multiple files, internally EOF is occur for each file. ARGF.readpartial returns empty strings for EOFs except the last one and raises EOFError for the last one.
Reads ARGF‘s current file in its entirety, returning an Array of its lines, one line per element. Lines are assumed to be separated by sep.
lines = ARGF.readlines lines[0] #=> "This is line one\n"
Returns the next line from the current file in ARGF.
By default lines are assumed to be separated by $/; to use a different character as a separator, supply it as a String for the sep argument.
The optional limit argument specifies how many characters of each line to return. By default all characters are returned.
An EOFError is raised at the end of the file.
Reads the next character from ARGF and returns it as a String. Raises an EOFError after the last character of the last file has been read.
For example:
$ echo "foo" > file $ ruby argf.rb file ARGF.readchar #=> "f" ARGF.readchar #=> "o" ARGF.readchar #=> "o" ARGF.readchar #=> "\n" ARGF.readchar #=> end of file reached (EOFError)
Positions the current file to the beginning of input, resetting ARGF.lineno to zero.
ARGF.readline #=> "This is line one\n" ARGF.rewind #=> 0 ARGF.lineno #=> 0 ARGF.readline #=> "This is line one\n"
Returns the current line number of ARGF as a whole. This value can be set manually with ARGF.lineno=.
For example:
ARGF.lineno #=> 0 ARGF.readline #=> "This is line 1\n" ARGF.lineno #=> 1
Sets the line number of ARGF as a whole to the given Integer.
ARGF sets the line number automatically as you read data, so normally you will not need to set it explicitly. To access the current line number use ARGF.lineno.
For example:
ARGF.lineno #=> 0 ARGF.readline #=> "This is line 1\n" ARGF.lineno #=> 1 ARGF.lineno = 0 #=> 0 ARGF.lineno #=> 0
Parses string or io using the specified options.
Argument string should be a String object; it will be put into a new StringIO object positioned at the beginning.
Argument io should be an IO object that is:
Open for reading; on return, the IO object will be closed.
Positioned at the beginning. To position at the end, for appending, use method CSV.generate. For any other positioning, pass a preset StringIO object instead.
Argument options: see Options for Parsing
headers Without {option headers} case.
These examples assume prior execution of:
string = "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n" path = 't.csv' File.write(path, string)
With no block given, returns an Array of Arrays formed from the source.
Parse a String:
a_of_a = CSV.parse(string) a_of_a # => [["foo", "0"], ["bar", "1"], ["baz", "2"]]
Parse an open File:
a_of_a = File.open(path) do |file| CSV.parse(file) end a_of_a # => [["foo", "0"], ["bar", "1"], ["baz", "2"]]
With a block given, calls the block with each parsed row:
Parse a String:
CSV.parse(string) {|row| p row }
Output:
["foo", "0"] ["bar", "1"] ["baz", "2"]
Parse an open File:
File.open(path) do |file| CSV.parse(file) {|row| p row } end
Output:
["foo", "0"] ["bar", "1"] ["baz", "2"]
headers With {option headers} case.
These examples assume prior execution of:
string = "Name,Count\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n" path = 't.csv' File.write(path, string)
With no block given, returns a CSV::Table object formed from the source.
Parse a String:
csv_table = CSV.parse(string, headers: ['Name', 'Count']) csv_table # => #<CSV::Table mode:col_or_row row_count:5>
Parse an open File:
csv_table = File.open(path) do |file| CSV.parse(file, headers: ['Name', 'Count']) end csv_table # => #<CSV::Table mode:col_or_row row_count:4>
With a block given, calls the block with each parsed row, which has been formed into a CSV::Row object:
Parse a String:
CSV.parse(string, headers: ['Name', 'Count']) {|row| p row }
Output:
# <CSV::Row "Name":"foo" "Count":"0"> # <CSV::Row "Name":"bar" "Count":"1"> # <CSV::Row "Name":"baz" "Count":"2">
Parse an open File:
File.open(path) do |file| CSV.parse(file, headers: ['Name', 'Count']) {|row| p row } end
Output:
# <CSV::Row "Name":"foo" "Count":"0"> # <CSV::Row "Name":"bar" "Count":"1"> # <CSV::Row "Name":"baz" "Count":"2">
Raises an exception if the argument is not a String object or IO object:
# Raises NoMethodError (undefined method `close' for :foo:Symbol) CSV.parse(:foo)
Alias for CSV.read.
Returns the count of the rows parsed or generated.
Parsing:
string = "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n" path = 't.csv' File.write(path, string) CSV.open(path) do |csv| csv.each do |row| p [csv.lineno, row] end end
Output:
[1, ["foo", "0"]] [2, ["bar", "1"]] [3, ["baz", "2"]]
Generating:
CSV.generate do |csv| p csv.lineno; csv << ['foo', 0] p csv.lineno; csv << ['bar', 1] p csv.lineno; csv << ['baz', 2] end
Output:
0 1 2
Returns the line most recently read:
string = "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n" path = 't.csv' File.write(path, string) CSV.open(path) do |csv| csv.each do |row| p [csv.lineno, csv.line] end end
Output:
[1, "foo,0\n"] [2, "bar,1\n"] [3, "baz,2\n"]
Rewinds the underlying IO object and resets CSV’s lineno() counter.
