Returns an array of flattened objects returned by the block.
With a block given, calls the block with successive elements; returns a flattened array of objects returned by the block:
[0, 1, 2, 3].flat_map {|element| -element } # => [0, -1, -2, -3] [0, 1, 2, 3].flat_map {|element| [element, -element] } # => [0, 0, 1, -1, 2, -2, 3, -3] [[0, 1], [2, 3]].flat_map {|e| e + [100] } # => [0, 1, 100, 2, 3, 100] {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2}.flat_map {|key, value| [key, value] } # => [:foo, 0, :bar, 1, :baz, 2]
With no block given, returns an Enumerator.
Alias: collect_concat.
Returns the elements for which the block returns the maximum values.
With a block given and no argument, returns the element for which the block returns the maximum value:
(1..4).max_by {|element| -element } # => 1 %w[a b c d].max_by {|element| -element.ord } # => "a" {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2}.max_by {|key, value| -value } # => [:foo, 0] [].max_by {|element| -element } # => nil
With a block given and positive integer argument n given, returns an array containing the n elements for which the block returns maximum values:
(1..4).max_by(2) {|element| -element } # => [1, 2] %w[a b c d].max_by(2) {|element| -element.ord } # => ["a", "b"] {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2}.max_by(2) {|key, value| -value } # => [[:foo, 0], [:bar, 1]] [].max_by(2) {|element| -element } # => []
Returns an Enumerator if no block is given.
With a block given, calls the block with each element, but in reverse order; returns self:
a = [] (1..4).reverse_each {|element| a.push(-element) } # => 1..4 a # => [-4, -3, -2, -1] a = [] %w[a b c d].reverse_each {|element| a.push(element) } # => ["a", "b", "c", "d"] a # => ["d", "c", "b", "a"] a = [] h.reverse_each {|element| a.push(element) } # => {:foo=>0, :bar=>1, :baz=>2} a # => [[:baz, 2], [:bar, 1], [:foo, 0]]
With no block given, returns an Enumerator.
Calls the given block with each element, converting multiple values from yield to an array; returns self:
a = [] (1..4).each_entry {|element| a.push(element) } # => 1..4 a # => [1, 2, 3, 4] a = [] h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz:2} h.each_entry {|element| a.push(element) } # => {:foo=>0, :bar=>1, :baz=>2} a # => [[:foo, 0], [:bar, 1], [:baz, 2]] class Foo include Enumerable def each yield 1 yield 1, 2 yield end end Foo.new.each_entry {|yielded| p yielded }
Output:
1 [1, 2] nil
With no block given, returns an Enumerator.
Calls the block with each successive disjoint n-tuple of elements; returns self:
a = [] (1..10).each_slice(3) {|tuple| a.push(tuple) } a # => [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6], [7, 8, 9], [10]] a = [] h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2, bat: 3, bam: 4} h.each_slice(2) {|tuple| a.push(tuple) } a # => [[[:foo, 0], [:bar, 1]], [[:baz, 2], [:bat, 3]], [[:bam, 4]]]
With no block given, returns an Enumerator.
Calls the block with each successive overlapped n-tuple of elements; returns self:
a = [] (1..5).each_cons(3) {|element| a.push(element) } a # => [[1, 2, 3], [2, 3, 4], [3, 4, 5]] a = [] h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2, bam: 3} h.each_cons(2) {|element| a.push(element) } a # => [[[:foo, 0], [:bar, 1]], [[:bar, 1], [:baz, 2]], [[:baz, 2], [:bam, 3]]]
With no block given, returns an Enumerator.
Creates an enumerator for each chunked elements. The beginnings of chunks are defined by the block.
This method splits each chunk using adjacent elements, elt_before and elt_after, in the receiver enumerator. This method split chunks between elt_before and elt_after where the block returns false.
The block is called the length of the receiver enumerator minus one.
The result enumerator yields the chunked elements as an array. So each method can be called as follows:
enum.chunk_while { |elt_before, elt_after| bool }.each { |ary| ... }
Other methods of the Enumerator class and Enumerable module, such as to_a, map, etc., are also usable.
For example, one-by-one increasing subsequence can be chunked as follows:
a = [1,2,4,9,10,11,12,15,16,19,20,21] b = a.chunk_while {|i, j| i+1 == j } p b.to_a #=> [[1, 2], [4], [9, 10, 11, 12], [15, 16], [19, 20, 21]] c = b.map {|a| a.length < 3 ? a : "#{a.first}-#{a.last}" } p c #=> [[1, 2], [4], "9-12", [15, 16], "19-21"] d = c.join(",") p d #=> "1,2,4,9-12,15,16,19-21"
Increasing (non-decreasing) subsequence can be chunked as follows:
a = [0, 9, 2, 2, 3, 2, 7, 5, 9, 5] p a.chunk_while {|i, j| i <= j }.to_a #=> [[0, 9], [2, 2, 3], [2, 7], [5, 9], [5]]
Adjacent evens and odds can be chunked as follows: (Enumerable#chunk is another way to do it.)
a = [7, 5, 9, 2, 0, 7, 9, 4, 2, 0] p a.chunk_while {|i, j| i.even? == j.even? }.to_a #=> [[7, 5, 9], [2, 0], [7, 9], [4, 2, 0]]
Enumerable#slice_when does the same, except splitting when the block returns true instead of false.
Sets create identifier, which is used to decide if the json_create hook of a class should be called; initial value is json_class:
JSON.create_id # => 'json_class'
Returns the current create identifier. See also JSON.create_id=.
Arguments obj and opts here are the same as arguments obj and opts in JSON.generate.
By default, generates JSON data without checking for circular references in obj (option max_nesting set to false, disabled).
Raises an exception if obj contains circular references:
a = []; b = []; a.push(b); b.push(a) # Raises SystemStackError (stack level too deep): JSON.fast_generate(a)
Arguments obj and opts here are the same as arguments obj and opts in JSON.generate.
Default options are:
{
indent: ' ', # Two spaces
space: ' ', # One space
array_nl: "\n", # Newline
object_nl: "\n" # Newline
}
Example:
obj = {foo: [:bar, :baz], bat: {bam: 0, bad: 1}} json = JSON.pretty_generate(obj) puts json
Output:
{
"foo": [
"bar",
"baz"
],
"bat": {
"bam": 0,
"bad": 1
}
}
Enters exclusive section and executes the block. Leaves the exclusive section automatically when the block exits. See example under MonitorMixin.
Returns the source file origin from the given object.
See ::trace_object_allocations for more information and examples.
Returns the original line from source for from the given object.
See ::trace_object_allocations for more information and examples.
Calls the block once for each living, nonimmediate object in this Ruby process. If module is specified, calls the block for only those classes or modules that match (or are a subclass of) module. Returns the number of objects found. Immediate objects (Fixnums, Symbols true, false, and nil) are never returned. In the example below, each_object returns both the numbers we defined and several constants defined in the Math module.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
a = 102.7 b = 95 # Won't be returned c = 12345678987654321 count = ObjectSpace.each_object(Numeric) {|x| p x } puts "Total count: #{count}"
produces:
12345678987654321 102.7 2.71828182845905 3.14159265358979 2.22044604925031e-16 1.7976931348623157e+308 2.2250738585072e-308 Total count: 7
Returns information for heaps in the GC.
If the first optional argument, heap_name, is passed in and not nil, it returns a Hash containing information about the particular heap. Otherwise, it will return a Hash with heap names as keys and a Hash containing information about the heap as values.
If the second optional argument, hash_or_key, is given as a Hash, it will be overwritten and returned. This is intended to avoid the probe effect.
If both optional arguments are passed in and the second optional argument is a symbol, it will return a Numeric value for the particular heap.
On CRuby, heap_name is of the type Integer but may be of type String on other implementations.
The contents of the hash are implementation-specific and may change in the future without notice.
If the optional argument, hash, is given, it is overwritten and returned.
This method is only expected to work on CRuby.
The hash includes the following keys about the internal information in the GC:
The slot size of the heap in bytes.
The number of pages that can be allocated without triggering a new garbage collection cycle.
The number of pages in the eden heap.
The total number of slots in all of the pages in the eden heap.
The number of pages in the tomb heap. The tomb heap only contains pages that do not have any live objects.
The total number of slots in all of the pages in the tomb heap.
The total number of pages that have been allocated in the heap.
The total number of pages that have been freed and released back to the system in the heap.
The number of times this heap has forced major garbage collection cycles to start due to running out of free slots.
The number of times this heap has forced incremental marking to complete due to running out of pooled slots.
Try to activate a gem containing path. Returns true if activation succeeded or wasn’t needed because it was already activated. Returns false if it can’t find the path in a gem.
Find the full path to the executable for gem name. If the exec_name is not given, an exception will be raised, otherwise the specified executable’s path is returned. requirements allows you to specify specific gem versions.
Reset the dir and path values. The next time dir or path is requested, the values will be calculated from scratch. This is mainly used by the unit tests to provide test isolation.
The version of the Marshal format for your Ruby.
Glob pattern for require-able path suffixes.
Use the home and paths values for Gem.dir and Gem.path. Used mainly by the unit tests to provide environment isolation.
