Returns x/y or arg as a Rational.
Rational(2, 3) #=> (2/3) Rational(5) #=> (5/1) Rational(0.5) #=> (1/2) Rational(0.3) #=> (5404319552844595/18014398509481984) Rational("2/3") #=> (2/3) Rational("0.3") #=> (3/10) Rational("10 cents") #=> ArgumentError Rational(nil) #=> TypeError Rational(1, nil) #=> TypeError Rational("10 cents", exception: false) #=> nil
Syntax of the string form:
string form = extra spaces , rational , extra spaces ;
rational = [ sign ] , unsigned rational ;
unsigned rational = numerator | numerator , "/" , denominator ;
numerator = integer part | fractional part | integer part , fractional part ;
denominator = digits ;
integer part = digits ;
fractional part = "." , digits , [ ( "e" | "E" ) , [ sign ] , digits ] ;
sign = "-" | "+" ;
digits = digit , { digit | "_" , digit } ;
digit = "0" | "1" | "2" | "3" | "4" | "5" | "6" | "7" | "8" | "9" ;
extra spaces = ? \s* ? ;

Returns the /etc/passwd information for the user with specified login name.
The information is returned as a Passwd struct.
See the unix manpage for getpwnam(3) for more detail.
Etc.getpwnam('root') #=> #<struct Etc::Passwd name="root", passwd="x", uid=0, gid=0, gecos="root",dir="/root", shell="/bin/bash">
Returns information about the group with specified name, as found in /etc/group.
The information is returned as a Group struct.
See the unix manpage for getgrnam(3) for more detail.
Etc.getgrnam('users') #=> #<struct Etc::Group name="users", passwd="x", gid=100, mem=["meta", "root"]>
Returns the path to the trusted certificate with the given ASN.1 name
Sets the temporary name of the module. This name is reflected in introspection of the module and the values that are related to it, such as instances, constants, and methods.
The name should be nil or non-empty string that is not a valid constant name (to avoid confusing between permanent and temporary names).
The method can be useful to distinguish dynamically generated classes and modules without assigning them to constants.
If the module is given a permanent name by assigning it to a constant, the temporary name is discarded. A temporary name can’t be assigned to modules that have a permanent name.
If the given name is nil, the module becomes anonymous again.
Example:
m = Module.new # => #<Module:0x0000000102c68f38> m.name #=> nil m.set_temporary_name("fake_name") # => fake_name m.name #=> "fake_name" m.set_temporary_name(nil) # => #<Module:0x0000000102c68f38> m.name #=> nil c = Class.new c.set_temporary_name("MyClass(with description)") c.new # => #<MyClass(with description):0x0....> c::M = m c::M.name #=> "MyClass(with description)::M" # Assigning to a constant replaces the name with a permanent one C = c C.name #=> "C" C::M.name #=> "C::M" c.new # => #<C:0x0....>
Returns a list of the private instance methods defined in mod. If the optional parameter is false, the methods of any ancestors are not included.
module Mod def method1() end private :method1 def method2() end end Mod.instance_methods #=> [:method2] Mod.private_instance_methods #=> [:method1]
Returns true if the named private method is defined by mod. If inherit is set, the lookup will also search mod’s ancestors. String arguments are converted to symbols.
module A def method1() end end class B private def method2() end end class C < B include A def method3() end end A.method_defined? :method1 #=> true C.private_method_defined? "method1" #=> false C.private_method_defined? "method2" #=> true C.private_method_defined? "method2", true #=> true C.private_method_defined? "method2", false #=> false C.method_defined? "method2" #=> false
Makes existing class methods private. Often used to hide the default constructor new.
String arguments are converted to symbols. An Array of Symbols and/or Strings is also accepted.
class SimpleSingleton # Not thread safe private_class_method :new def SimpleSingleton.create(*args, &block) @me = new(*args, &block) if ! @me @me end end
Return the native thread ID which is used by the Ruby thread.
The ID depends on the OS. (not POSIX thread ID returned by pthread_self(3))
On Linux it is TID returned by gettid(2).
On macOS it is the system-wide unique integral ID of thread returned by pthread_threadid_np(3).
On FreeBSD it is the unique integral ID of the thread returned by pthread_getthreadid_np(3).
On Windows it is the thread identifier returned by GetThreadId().
On other platforms, it raises NotImplementedError.
NOTE: If the thread is not associated yet or already deassociated with a native thread, it returns nil. If the Ruby implementation uses M:N thread model, the ID may change depending on the timing.
Returns the method identifier for the given object.
class A include ObjectSpace def foo trace_object_allocations do obj = Object.new p "#{allocation_class_path(obj)}##{allocation_method_id(obj)}" end end end A.new.foo #=> "Class#new"
See ::trace_object_allocations for more information and examples.
The default signing key path
The default signing certificate chain path
Returns the list of parts for the full name of this constant path. For example: [:Foo, :Bar]
Returns the list of parts for the full name of this constant path. For example: [:Foo, :Bar]
Returns the list of parts for the full name of this constant. For example: [:Foo]
The name of the state file.
Downloads uri to path if necessary. If no path is given, it just passes the data.
Returns the file name of this handle.
