Returns the String created by generating CSV from ary using the specified options.
Argument ary must be an Array.
Special options:
Option :row_sep defaults to "\n"> on Ruby 3.0 or later and <tt>$INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR ($/) otherwise.:
$INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR # => "\n"
This method accepts an additional option, :encoding, which sets the base Encoding for the output. This method will try to guess your Encoding from the first non-nil field in row, if possible, but you may need to use this parameter as a backup plan.
For other options, see Options for Generating.
Returns the String generated from an Array:
CSV.generate_line(['foo', '0']) # => "foo,0\n"
Raises an exception if ary is not an Array:
# Raises NoMethodError (undefined method `find' for :foo:Symbol) CSV.generate_line(:foo)
Returns the String created by generating CSV from using the specified options.
Argument rows must be an Array of row. Row is Array of String or CSV::Row.
Special options:
Option :row_sep defaults to "\n" on Ruby 3.0 or later and $INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR ($/) otherwise.:
$INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR # => "\n"
This method accepts an additional option, :encoding, which sets the base Encoding for the output. This method will try to guess your Encoding from the first non-nil field in row, if possible, but you may need to use this parameter as a backup plan.

Returns the String generated from an
CSV.generate_lines(['foo', '0'], ['bar', '1'], ['baz', '2']) # => "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz.2\n"
Raises an exception
# Raises NoMethodError (undefined method `find' for :foo:Symbol) CSV.generate_lines(:foo)
Generates new parameters for the algorithm. algo_name is a String that represents the algorithm. The optional argument options is a Hash that specifies the options specific to the algorithm. The order of the options can be important.
A block can be passed optionally. The meaning of the arguments passed to the block varies depending on the implementation of the algorithm. The block may be called once or multiple times, or may not even be called.
For the supported options, see the documentation for the ‘openssl genpkey’ utility command.
pkey = OpenSSL::PKey.generate_parameters("DSA", "dsa_paramgen_bits" => 2048) p pkey.p.num_bits #=> 2048
Returns true if the date is Wednesday.
Returns true if time represents Wednesday.
t = Time.local(1993, 2, 24) #=> 1993-02-24 00:00:00 -0600 t.wednesday? #=> true
returns array of WIN32OLE_PARAM object corresponding with method parameters.

Argument csv_string, if given, must be a String object; defaults to a new empty String.
Arguments options, if given, should be generating options. See Options for Generating.
Creates a new CSV object via CSV.new(csv_string, **options); calls the block with the CSV object, which the block may modify; returns the String generated from the CSV object.
Note that a passed String is modified by this method. Pass csv_string.dup if the String must be preserved.
This method has one additional option: :encoding, which sets the base Encoding for the output if no no str is specified. CSV needs this hint if you plan to output non-ASCII compatible data.
Add lines:
input_string = "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n" output_string = CSV.generate(input_string) do |csv| csv << ['bat', 3] csv << ['bam', 4] end output_string # => "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\nbat,3\nbam,4\n" input_string # => "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\nbat,3\nbam,4\n" output_string.equal?(input_string) # => true # Same string, modified
Add lines into new string, preserving old string:
input_string = "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n" output_string = CSV.generate(input_string.dup) do |csv| csv << ['bat', 3] csv << ['bam', 4] end output_string # => "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\nbat,3\nbam,4\n" input_string # => "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n" output_string.equal?(input_string) # => false # Different strings
Create lines from nothing:
output_string = CSV.generate do |csv| csv << ['foo', 0] csv << ['bar', 1] csv << ['baz', 2] end output_string # => "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n"
Raises an exception if csv_string is not a String object:
# Raises TypeError (no implicit conversion of Integer into String) CSV.generate(0)
Add separator in summary.
Returns the parameter information of this proc.
prc = lambda{|x, y=42, *other|} prc.parameters #=> [[:req, :x], [:opt, :y], [:rest, :other]]
Returns the parameter information of this method.
def foo(bar); end method(:foo).parameters #=> [[:req, :bar]] def foo(bar, baz, bat, &blk); end method(:foo).parameters #=> [[:req, :bar], [:req, :baz], [:req, :bat], [:block, :blk]] def foo(bar, *args); end method(:foo).parameters #=> [[:req, :bar], [:rest, :args]] def foo(bar, baz, *args, &blk); end method(:foo).parameters #=> [[:req, :bar], [:req, :baz], [:rest, :args], [:block, :blk]]
Returns the parameter information of this method.
def foo(bar); end method(:foo).parameters #=> [[:req, :bar]] def foo(bar, baz, bat, &blk); end method(:foo).parameters #=> [[:req, :bar], [:req, :baz], [:req, :bat], [:block, :blk]] def foo(bar, *args); end method(:foo).parameters #=> [[:req, :bar], [:rest, :args]] def foo(bar, baz, *args, &blk); end method(:foo).parameters #=> [[:req, :bar], [:req, :baz], [:rest, :args], [:block, :blk]]
Return the parameters definition of the method or block that the current hook belongs to. Format is the same as for Method#parameters
Returns a String containing the generated JSON data.
See also JSON.fast_generate, JSON.pretty_generate.
Argument obj is the Ruby object to be converted to JSON.
Argument opts, if given, contains a Hash of options for the generation. See Generating Options.
When obj is an Array, returns a String containing a JSON array:
obj = ["foo", 1.0, true, false, nil] json = JSON.generate(obj) json # => '["foo",1.0,true,false,null]'
When obj is a Hash, returns a String containing a JSON object:
obj = {foo: 0, bar: 's', baz: :bat} json = JSON.generate(obj) json # => '{"foo":0,"bar":"s","baz":"bat"}'
For examples of generating from other Ruby objects, see Generating JSON from Other Objects.
Raises an exception if any formatting option is not a String.
Raises an exception if obj contains circular references:
a = []; b = []; a.push(b); b.push(a) # Raises JSON::NestingError (nesting of 100 is too deep): JSON.generate(a)
Returns the fractional part of the day.
DateTime.new(2001,2,3,12).day_fraction #=> (1/2)
This method is equivalent to d + n.
This method is equivalent to d >> (n * 12).
Date.new(2001,2,3).next_year #=> #<Date: 2002-02-03 ...> Date.new(2008,2,29).next_year #=> #<Date: 2009-02-28 ...> Date.new(2008,2,29).next_year(4) #=> #<Date: 2012-02-29 ...>
See also Date#>>.
Returns the size of arguments of the method.
tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library', 'Workbook') method = WIN32OLE_METHOD.new(tobj, 'SaveAs') puts method.size_params # => 11
Returns library name. If the method fails to access library name, WIN32OLERuntimeError is raised.
tlib = WIN32OLE_TYPELIB.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library') tlib.library_name # => Excel
Returns the data created by parsing the first line of 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, returns the first row as a new Array.
These examples assume prior execution of:
string = "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n" path = 't.csv' File.write(path, string)
Parse the first line from a String object:
CSV.parse_line(string) # => ["foo", "0"]
Parse the first line from a File object:
File.open(path) do |file| CSV.parse_line(file) # => ["foo", "0"] end # => ["foo", "0"]
Returns nil if the argument is an empty String:
CSV.parse_line('') # => nil
headers With {option headers}, returns the first row as a CSV::Row object.
These examples assume prior execution of:
string = "Name,Count\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n" path = 't.csv' File.write(path, string)
Parse the first line from a String object:
CSV.parse_line(string, headers: true) # => #<CSV::Row "Name":"foo" "Count":"0">
Parse the first line from a File object:
File.open(path) do |file| CSV.parse_line(file, headers: true) end # => #<CSV::Row "Name":"foo" "Count":"0">
Raises an exception if the argument is nil:
# Raises ArgumentError (Cannot parse nil as CSV): CSV.parse_line(nil)
