Returns 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 omitting those elements for which the block returned a truthy value; does not modify self
:
a = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5] a.drop_while {|element| element < 3 } # => [3, 4, 5]
With no block given, returns a new Enumerator
.

Methods Complex#as_json
and Complex.json_create
may be used to serialize and deserialize a Complex object; see Marshal
.
Method Complex#as_json
serializes self
, returning a 2-element hash representing self
:
require 'json/add/complex' x = Complex(2).as_json # => {"json_class"=>"Complex", "r"=>2, "i"=>0} y = Complex(2.0, 4).as_json # => {"json_class"=>"Complex", "r"=>2.0, "i"=>4}
Method JSON.create
deserializes such a hash, returning a Complex object:
Complex.json_create(x) # => (2+0i) Complex.json_create(y) # => (2.0+4i)
Returns a JSON
string representing self
:
require 'json/add/complex' puts Complex(2).to_json puts Complex(2.0, 4).to_json
Output:
{"json_class":"Complex","r":2,"i":0} {"json_class":"Complex","r":2.0,"i":4}
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
Related: String#end_with?
.
Calls the given block with each successive character from self
; returns self
:
'hello'.each_char {|char| print char, ' ' } print "\n" 'тест'.each_char {|char| print char, ' ' } print "\n" 'こんにちは'.each_char {|char| print char, ' ' } print "\n"
Output:
h e l l o т е с т こ ん に ち は
Returns an enumerator if no block is given.
Returns true
if self
contains only ASCII characters, false
otherwise:
'abc'.ascii_only? # => true "abc\u{6666}".ascii_only? # => false
Returns the Fiber
scheduler, that was last set for the current thread with Fiber.set_scheduler
if and only if the current fiber is non-blocking.
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. 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"
