Returns 0 if the value is positive, pi otherwise.
Returns 0 if the value is positive, pi otherwise.
Returns an array; [num, 0].
Returns an array; [num.abs, num.arg].
Returns a 2-element array containing two numeric elements, formed from the two operands self and other, of a common compatible type.
Of the Core and Standard Library classes, Integer, Rational, and Complex use this implementation.
Examples:
i = 2 # => 2 i.coerce(3) # => [3, 2] i.coerce(3.0) # => [3.0, 2.0] i.coerce(Rational(1, 2)) # => [0.5, 2.0] i.coerce(Complex(3, 4)) # Raises RangeError. r = Rational(5, 2) # => (5/2) r.coerce(2) # => [(2/1), (5/2)] r.coerce(2.0) # => [2.0, 2.5] r.coerce(Rational(2, 3)) # => [(2/3), (5/2)] r.coerce(Complex(3, 4)) # => [(3+4i), ((5/2)+0i)] c = Complex(2, 3) # => (2+3i) c.coerce(2) # => [(2+0i), (2+3i)] c.coerce(2.0) # => [(2.0+0i), (2+3i)] c.coerce(Rational(1, 2)) # => [((1/2)+0i), (2+3i)] c.coerce(Complex(3, 4)) # => [(3+4i), (2+3i)]
Raises an exception if any type conversion fails.
Returns self.
Raises an exception if the value for freeze is neither true nor nil.

Returns the remainder after dividing self by other.
Of the Core and Standard Library classes, only Float and Rational use this implementation.
Examples:
11.0.remainder(4) # => 3.0 11.0.remainder(-4) # => 3.0 -11.0.remainder(4) # => -3.0 -11.0.remainder(-4) # => -3.0 12.0.remainder(4) # => 0.0 12.0.remainder(-4) # => 0.0 -12.0.remainder(4) # => -0.0 -12.0.remainder(-4) # => -0.0 13.0.remainder(4.0) # => 1.0 13.0.remainder(Rational(4, 1)) # => 1.0 Rational(13, 1).remainder(4) # => (1/1) Rational(13, 1).remainder(-4) # => (1/1) Rational(-13, 1).remainder(4) # => (-1/1) Rational(-13, 1).remainder(-4) # => (-1/1)
Returns true if zero has a zero value, false otherwise.
Of the Core and Standard Library classes, only Rational and Complex use this implementation.
Returns true if self is greater than 0, false otherwise.
Returns true if self is less than 0, false otherwise.
Returns zero.
Returns self.
Returns the numerator.
Returns whether self‘s encoding is EUC-JP or not.
Compares self.downcase and other_string.downcase; returns:
-1 if other_string.downcase is larger.
0 if the two are equal.
1 if other_string.downcase is smaller.
nil if the two are incomparable.
Examples:
'foo'.casecmp('foo') # => 0 'foo'.casecmp('food') # => -1 'food'.casecmp('foo') # => 1 'FOO'.casecmp('foo') # => 0 'foo'.casecmp('FOO') # => 0 'foo'.casecmp(1) # => nil
See Case Mapping.

Returns true if self and other_string are equal after Unicode case folding, otherwise false:
'foo'.casecmp?('foo') # => true 'foo'.casecmp?('food') # => false 'food'.casecmp?('foo') # => false 'FOO'.casecmp?('foo') # => true 'foo'.casecmp?('FOO') # => true
Returns nil if the two values are incomparable:
'foo'.casecmp?(1) # => nil
See Case Mapping.
Related: String#casecmp.
Returns true if the length of self is zero, false otherwise:
"hello".empty? # => false " ".empty? # => false "".empty? # => true
With a block given, calls the block with each String value returned by successive calls to String#succ; the first value is self, the next is self.succ, and so on; the sequence terminates when value other_string is reached; returns self:
'a8'.upto('b6') {|s| print s, ' ' } # => "a8"
Output:
a8 a9 b0 b1 b2 b3 b4 b5 b6
If argument exclusive is given as a truthy object, the last value is omitted:
'a8'.upto('b6', true) {|s| print s, ' ' } # => "a8"
Output:
a8 a9 b0 b1 b2 b3 b4 b5
If other_string would not be reached, does not call the block:
'25'.upto('5') {|s| fail s } 'aa'.upto('a') {|s| fail s }
With no block given, returns a new Enumerator:
'a8'.upto('b6') # => #<Enumerator: "a8":upto("b6")>
Returns the Integer byte-based index of the last occurrence of the given substring, or nil if none found:
'foo'.byterindex('f') # => 0 'foo'.byterindex('o') # => 2 'foo'.byterindex('oo') # => 1 'foo'.byterindex('ooo') # => nil
Returns the Integer byte-based index of the last match for the given Regexp regexp, or nil if none found:
'foo'.byterindex(/f/) # => 0 'foo'.byterindex(/o/) # => 2 'foo'.byterindex(/oo/) # => 1 'foo'.byterindex(/ooo/) # => nil
The last match means starting at the possible last position, not the last of longest matches.
'foo'.byterindex(/o+/) # => 2 $~ #=> #<MatchData "o">
To get the last longest match, needs to combine with negative lookbehind.
'foo'.byterindex(/(?<!o)o+/) # => 1 $~ #=> #<MatchData "oo">
Or String#byteindex with negative lookforward.
'foo'.byteindex(/o+(?!.*o)/) # => 1 $~ #=> #<MatchData "oo">
Integer argument offset, if given and non-negative, specifies the maximum starting byte-based position in the
string to _end_ the search: 'foo'.byterindex('o', 0) # => nil 'foo'.byterindex('o', 1) # => 1 'foo'.byterindex('o', 2) # => 2 'foo'.byterindex('o', 3) # => 2
If offset is a negative Integer, the maximum starting position in the string to end the search is the sum of the string’s length and offset:
'foo'.byterindex('o', -1) # => 2 'foo'.byterindex('o', -2) # => 1 'foo'.byterindex('o', -3) # => nil 'foo'.byterindex('o', -4) # => nil
If offset does not land on character (codepoint) boundary, IndexError is raised.

Sets the byte at zero-based index to integer; returns integer:
s = 'abcde' # => "abcde" s.setbyte(0, 98) # => 98 s # => "bbcde"
Related: String#getbyte.
Returns a string containing the upcased characters in self:
s = 'Hello World!' # => "Hello World!" s.upcase # => "HELLO WORLD!"
The casing may be affected by the given options; see Case Mapping.
