Returns float truncated (toward zero) to a precision of ndigits decimal digits (default: 0).
When the precision is negative, the returned value is an integer with at least ndigits.abs trailing zeros.
Returns a floating point number when ndigits is positive, otherwise returns an integer.
2.8.truncate #=> 2 (-2.8).truncate #=> -2 1.234567.truncate(2) #=> 1.23 34567.89.truncate(-2) #=> 34500
Note that the limited precision of floating point arithmetic might lead to surprising results:
(0.3 / 0.1).truncate #=> 2 (!)
Returns nil, -1, or 1 depending on whether the value is finite, -Infinity, or +Infinity.
(0.0).infinite? #=> nil (-1.0/0.0).infinite? #=> -1 (+1.0/0.0).infinite? #=> 1
Returns true if float is a valid IEEE floating point number, i.e. it is not infinite and Float#nan? is false.
Deletes the named directory. Raises a subclass of SystemCallError if the directory isn’t empty.
Deletes the named files, returning the number of names passed as arguments. Raises an exception on any error. Since the underlying implementation relies on the unlink(2) system call, the type of exception raised depends on its error type (see linux.die.net/man/2/unlink) and has the form of e.g. Errno::ENOENT.
See also Dir::rmdir.
Truncates the file file_name to be at most integer bytes long. Not available on all platforms.
f = File.new("out", "w") f.write("1234567890") #=> 10 f.close #=> nil File.truncate("out", 5) #=> 0 File.size("out") #=> 5
Truncates file to at most integer bytes. The file must be opened for writing. Not available on all platforms.
f = File.new("out", "w") f.syswrite("1234567890") #=> 10 f.truncate(5) #=> 0 f.close() #=> nil File.size("out") #=> 5
Round to the nearest integer (by default), returning the result as a BigDecimal if n is specified, or as an Integer if it isn’t.
BigDecimal('3.14159').round #=> 3 BigDecimal('8.7').round #=> 9 BigDecimal('-9.9').round #=> -10 BigDecimal('3.14159').round(2).class.name #=> "BigDecimal" BigDecimal('3.14159').round.class.name #=> "Integer"
If n is specified and positive, the fractional part of the result has no more than that many digits.
If n is specified and negative, at least that many digits to the left of the decimal point will be 0 in the result, and return value will be an Integer.
BigDecimal('3.14159').round(3) #=> 3.142 BigDecimal('13345.234').round(-2) #=> 13300
The value of the optional mode argument can be used to determine how rounding is performed; see BigDecimal.mode.
Returns nil, -1, or +1 depending on whether the value is finite, -Infinity, or +Infinity.
Returns True if the value is finite (not NaN or infinite).
Truncate to the nearest integer (by default), returning the result as a BigDecimal.

If n is specified and positive, the fractional part of the result has no more than that many digits.
If n is specified and negative, at least that many digits to the left of the decimal point will be 0 in the result.
BigDecimal('3.14159').truncate(3) #=> 3.141 BigDecimal('13345.234').truncate(-2) #=> 13300.0

The optional half keyword argument is available similar to Float#round.
Rational(25, 100).round(1, half: :up) #=> (3/10) Rational(25, 100).round(1, half: :down) #=> (1/5) Rational(25, 100).round(1, half: :even) #=> (1/5) Rational(35, 100).round(1, half: :up) #=> (2/5) Rational(35, 100).round(1, half: :down) #=> (3/10) Rational(35, 100).round(1, half: :even) #=> (2/5) Rational(-25, 100).round(1, half: :up) #=> (-3/10) Rational(-25, 100).round(1, half: :down) #=> (-1/5) Rational(-25, 100).round(1, half: :even) #=> (-1/5)
Returns true if the date is Sunday.
Rounds subsecond to a given precision in decimal digits (0 digits by default). It returns a new Time object. ndigits should be zero or a positive integer.

Pushes back bytes (passed as a parameter) onto ios, such that a subsequent buffered read will return it. Only one byte may be pushed back before a subsequent read operation (that is, you will be able to read only the last of several bytes that have been pushed back). Has no effect with unbuffered reads (such as IO#sysread).
f = File.new("testfile") #=> #<File:testfile> b = f.getbyte #=> 0x38 f.ungetbyte(b) #=> nil f.getbyte #=> 0x38
Pushes back one character (passed as a parameter) onto ios, such that a subsequent buffered character read will return it. Only one character may be pushed back before a subsequent read operation (that is, you will be able to read only the last of several characters that have been pushed back). Has no effect with unbuffered reads (such as IO#sysread).
f = File.new("testfile") #=> #<File:testfile> c = f.getc #=> "8" f.ungetc(c) #=> nil f.getc #=> "8"
Reorganizes the database file. This operation removes reserved space of elements that have already been deleted. It is only useful after a lot of deletions in the database.
Identical to Enumerable#count, except it returns Infinity for endless ranges.
Returns true if self points to a mountpoint.
Returns pathname. This method is deprecated and will be removed in Ruby 3.2.
