Simple deprecation method that deprecates name by wrapping it up in a dummy method. It warns on each call to the dummy method telling the user of repl (unless repl is :none) and the year/month that it is planned to go away.
Check if gem name version version is installed.

Returns a new Array whose elements are the elements of self at the given Integer or Range indexes.
For each positive index, returns the element at offset index:
a = [:foo, 'bar', 2] a.values_at(0, 2) # => [:foo, 2] a.values_at(0..1) # => [:foo, "bar"]
The given indexes may be in any order, and may repeat:
a = [:foo, 'bar', 2] a.values_at(2, 0, 1, 0, 2) # => [2, :foo, "bar", :foo, 2] a.values_at(1, 0..2) # => ["bar", :foo, "bar", 2]
Assigns nil for an index that is too large:
a = [:foo, 'bar', 2] a.values_at(0, 3, 1, 3) # => [:foo, nil, "bar", nil]
Returns a new empty Array if no arguments given.
For each negative index, counts backward from the end of the array:
a = [:foo, 'bar', 2] a.values_at(-1, -3) # => [2, :foo]
Assigns nil for an index that is too small:
a = [:foo, 'bar', 2] a.values_at(0, -5, 1, -6, 2) # => [:foo, nil, "bar", nil, 2]
The given indexes may have a mixture of signs:
a = [:foo, 'bar', 2] a.values_at(0, -2, 1, -1) # => [:foo, "bar", "bar", 2]
Deletes an element from self, per the given Integer index.
When index is non-negative, deletes the element at offset index:
a = [:foo, 'bar', 2] a.delete_at(1) # => "bar" a # => [:foo, 2]
If index is too large, returns nil.
When index is negative, counts backward from the end of the array:
a = [:foo, 'bar', 2] a.delete_at(-2) # => "bar" a # => [:foo, 2]
If index is too small (far from zero), returns nil.
Returns a new Array containing zero or more leading elements of self; does not modify self.
With a block given, calls the block with each successive element of self; stops if the block returns false or nil; returns a new Array containing those elements for which the block returned a truthy value:
a = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5] a.take_while {|element| element < 3 } # => [0, 1, 2] a.take_while {|element| true } # => [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5] a # => [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
With no block given, returns a new Enumerator:
[0, 1].take_while # => #<Enumerator: [0, 1]:take_while>
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

Returns the next-larger representable Float.
These examples show the internally stored values (64-bit hexadecimal) for each Float f and for the corresponding f.next_float:
f = 0.0 # 0x0000000000000000 f.next_float # 0x0000000000000001 f = 0.01 # 0x3f847ae147ae147b f.next_float # 0x3f847ae147ae147c
In the remaining examples here, the output is shown in the usual way (result to_s):
0.01.next_float # => 0.010000000000000002 1.0.next_float # => 1.0000000000000002 100.0.next_float # => 100.00000000000001 f = 0.01 (0..3).each_with_index {|i| printf "%2d %-20a %s\n", i, f, f.to_s; f = f.next_float }

f = 0.0; 100.times { f += 0.1 }
f # => 9.99999999999998 # should be 10.0 in the ideal world.
10-f # => 1.9539925233402755e-14 # the floating point error.
10.0.next_float-10 # => 1.7763568394002505e-15 # 1 ulp (unit in the last place).
(10-f)/(10.0.next_float-10) # => 11.0 # the error is 11 ulp.
(10-f)/(10*Float::EPSILON) # => 8.8 # approximation of the above.
"%a" % 10 # => "0x1.4p+3"
"%a" % f # => "0x1.3fffffffffff5p+3" # the last hex digit is 5. 16 - 5 = 11 ulp.

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 the dirpath string that was used to create self (or nil if created by method Dir.for_fd):
Dir.new('example').path # => "example"
Converts a pathname to an absolute pathname. Relative paths are referenced from the current working directory of the process unless dir_string is given, in which case it will be used as the starting point. The given pathname may start with a “~”, which expands to the process owner’s home directory (the environment variable HOME must be set correctly). “~user” expands to the named user’s home directory.
File.expand_path("~oracle/bin") #=> "/home/oracle/bin"
A simple example of using dir_string is as follows.
File.expand_path("ruby", "/usr/bin") #=> "/usr/bin/ruby"
A more complex example which also resolves parent directory is as follows. Suppose we are in bin/mygem and want the absolute path of lib/mygem.rb.
File.expand_path("../../lib/mygem.rb", __FILE__) #=> ".../path/to/project/lib/mygem.rb"
So first it resolves the parent of __FILE__, that is bin/, then go to the parent, the root of the project and appends lib/mygem.rb.
Converts a pathname to an absolute pathname. Relative paths are referenced from the current working directory of the process unless dir_string is given, in which case it will be used as the starting point. If the given pathname starts with a “~” it is NOT expanded, it is treated as a normal directory name.
File.absolute_path("~oracle/bin") #=> "<relative_path>/~oracle/bin"
