Set
the real user ID of the calling process to user. Not available on all platforms.
Set
the real group ID of the calling process to group. Not available on all platforms.
Sets the (user) real and/or effective user IDs of the current process to rid and eid, respectively. A value of -1
for either means to leave that ID unchanged. Not available on all platforms.
Sets the (group) real and/or effective group IDs of the current process to rid and eid, respectively. A value of -1
for either means to leave that ID unchanged. Not available on all platforms.
Sets the (user) real, effective, and saved user IDs of the current process to rid, eid, and sid respectively. A value of -1
for any value means to leave that ID unchanged. Not available on all platforms.
Sets the (group) real, effective, and saved user IDs of the current process to rid, eid, and sid respectively. A value of -1
for any value means to leave that ID unchanged. Not available on all platforms.

If object
is an Array object, returns object
.
Otherwise if object
responds to :to_ary
, calls object.to_ary
and returns the result.
Returns nil
if object
does not respond to :to_ary
Raises an exception unless object.to_ary
returns an Array object.
If object
is an Integer object, returns object
.
Integer.try_convert(1) # => 1
Otherwise if object
responds to :to_int
, calls object.to_int
and returns the result.
Integer.try_convert(1.25) # => 1
Returns nil
if object
does not respond to :to_int
Integer.try_convert([]) # => nil
Raises an exception unless object.to_int
returns an Integer object.
If object
is a String object, returns object
.
Otherwise if object
responds to :to_str
, calls object.to_str
and returns the result.
Returns nil
if object
does not respond to :to_str
.
Raises an exception unless object.to_str
returns a String object.
Returns an array of the grapheme clusters in self
(see Unicode Grapheme Cluster Boundaries):
s = "\u0061\u0308-pqr-\u0062\u0308-xyz-\u0063\u0308" # => "ä-pqr-b̈-xyz-c̈" s.grapheme_clusters # => ["ä", "-", "p", "q", "r", "-", "b̈", "-", "x", "y", "z", "-", "c̈"]
Returns whether self
starts with any of the given string_or_regexp
.
Matches patterns against the beginning of self
. For each given string_or_regexp
, the pattern is:
string_or_regexp
itself, if it is a Regexp
.
Regexp.quote(string_or_regexp)
, if string_or_regexp
is a string.
Returns true
if any pattern matches the beginning, false
otherwise:
'hello'.start_with?('hell') # => true 'hello'.start_with?(/H/i) # => true 'hello'.start_with?('heaven', 'hell') # => true 'hello'.start_with?('heaven', 'paradise') # => false 'тест'.start_with?('т') # => true 'こんにちは'.start_with?('こ') # => true

.
Like String#tr_s
, but modifies self
in place. Returns self
if any changes were made, nil
otherwise.
Related: String#squeeze!
.
Like backtrace
, but returns each line of the execution stack as a Thread::Backtrace::Location
. Accepts the same arguments as backtrace
.
f = Fiber.new { Fiber.yield } f.resume loc = f.backtrace_locations.first loc.label #=> "yield" loc.path #=> "test.rb" loc.lineno #=> 1
Returns true
if the named file is writable by the real user and group id of this process. See access(3).
Note that some OS-level security features may cause this to return true even though the file is not writable by the real user/group.
If file_name is writable by others, returns an integer representing the file permission bits of file_name. Returns nil
otherwise. The meaning of the bits is platform dependent; on Unix systems, see stat(2)
.
file_name can be an IO
object.
File.world_writable?("/tmp") #=> 511 m = File.world_writable?("/tmp") sprintf("%o", m) #=> "777"
Returns the list of available encoding names.
Encoding.name_list #=> ["US-ASCII", "ASCII-8BIT", "UTF-8", "ISO-8859-1", "Shift_JIS", "EUC-JP", "Windows-31J", "BINARY", "CP932", "eucJP"]
Returns the list of private methods accessible to obj. If the all parameter is set to false
, only those methods in the receiver will be listed.
Returns true
if obj is an instance of the given class. See also Object#kind_of?
.
class A; end class B < A; end class C < B; end b = B.new b.instance_of? A #=> false b.instance_of? B #=> true b.instance_of? C #=> false
Returns any backtrace associated with the exception. This method is similar to Exception#backtrace
, but the backtrace is an array of Thread::Backtrace::Location
.
This method is not affected by Exception#set_backtrace()
.
Sets the backtrace information associated with exc
. The backtrace
must be an array of String
objects or a single String
in the format described in Exception#backtrace
.
