Return the accept character set for all new CGI instances.

Set the accept character set for all new CGI instances.

Returns true if the arguments define a valid ordinal date, false otherwise:

Date.valid_date?(2001, 2, 3)  # => true
Date.valid_date?(2001, 2, 29) # => false
Date.valid_date?(2001, 2, -1) # => true

See argument start.

Returns self.

Returns a DateTime whose value is the same as self:

Date.new(2001, 2, 3).to_datetime # => #<DateTime: 2001-02-03T00:00:00+00:00>

See as_json.

Returns a Date object which denotes self.

Returns self.

Returns a Date object which denotes self.

Returns a DateTime object which denotes self.

See as_json.

Returns the offset in seconds between the timezones of UTC and self:

Time.utc(2000, 1, 1).utc_offset   # => 0
Time.local(2000, 1, 1).utc_offset # => -21600 # -6*3600, or minus six hours.

Calls the block with each remaining line read from the stream; returns self. Does nothing if already at end-of-stream; See Line IO.

With no arguments given, reads lines as determined by line separator $/:

f = File.new('t.txt')
f.each_line {|line| p line }
f.each_line {|line| fail 'Cannot happen' }
f.close

Output:

"First line\n"
"Second line\n"
"\n"
"Fourth line\n"
"Fifth line\n"

With only string argument sep given, reads lines as determined by line separator sep; see Line Separator:

f = File.new('t.txt')
f.each_line('li') {|line| p line }
f.close

Output:

"First li"
"ne\nSecond li"
"ne\n\nFourth li"
"ne\nFifth li"
"ne\n"

The two special values for sep are honored:

f = File.new('t.txt')
# Get all into one string.
f.each_line(nil) {|line| p line }
f.close

Output:

"First line\nSecond line\n\nFourth line\nFifth line\n"

f.rewind
# Get paragraphs (up to two line separators).
f.each_line('') {|line| p line }

Output:

"First line\nSecond line\n\n"
"Fourth line\nFifth line\n"

With only integer argument limit given, limits the number of bytes in each line; see Line Limit:

f = File.new('t.txt')
f.each_line(8) {|line| p line }
f.close

Output:

"First li"
"ne\n"
"Second l"
"ine\n"
"\n"
"Fourth l"
"ine\n"
"Fifth li"
"ne\n"

With arguments sep and limit given, combines the two behaviors:

• Calls with the next line as determined by line separator sep.

• But returns no more bytes than are allowed by the limit.

Optional keyword argument chomp specifies whether line separators are to be omitted:

f = File.new('t.txt')
f.each_line(chomp: true) {|line| p line }
f.close

Output:

"First line"
"Second line"
""
"Fourth line"
"Fifth line"

Returns an Enumerator if no block is given.

Calls the given block with each byte (0..255) in the stream; returns self. See Byte IO.

f = File.new('t.rus')
a = []
f.each_byte {|b| a << b }
a # => [209, 130, 208, 181, 209, 129, 209, 130]
f.close

Returns an Enumerator if no block is given.

Related: IO#each_char, IO#each_codepoint.

Calls the given block with each codepoint in the stream; returns self:

f = File.new('t.rus')
a = []
f.each_codepoint {|c| a << c }
a # => [1090, 1077, 1089, 1090]
f.close

Returns an Enumerator if no block is given.

Related: IO#each_byte, IO#each_char.

Returns the path associated with the IO, or nil if there is no path associated with the IO. It is not guaranteed that the path exists on the filesystem.

$stdin.path # => "<STDIN>"

File.open("testfile") {|f| f.path} # => "testfile"

See as_json.

Yields all attributes (as symbols) along with the corresponding values or returns an enumerator if no block is given.

require "ostruct"
data = OpenStruct.new("country" => "Australia", :capital => "Canberra")
data.each_pair.to_a   # => [[:country, "Australia"], [:capital, "Canberra"]]

See as_json.

With a block given, passes each element of self to the block in reverse order:

a = []
(1..4).reverse_each {|element| a.push(element) } # => 1..4
a # => [4, 3, 2, 1]

a = []
(1...4).reverse_each {|element| a.push(element) } # => 1...4
a # => [3, 2, 1]

With no block given, returns an enumerator.

See as_json.

See as_json.

See as_json.

Calls the given block with each member name/value pair; returns self:

Customer = Struct.new(:name, :address, :zip) # => Customer
joe = Customer.new("Joe Smith", "123 Maple, Anytown NC", 12345)
joe.each_pair {|(name, value)| p "#{name} => #{value}" }

Output:

"name => Joe Smith"
"address => 123 Maple, Anytown NC"
"zip => 12345"

Returns an Enumerator if no block is given.
