Similar to method, searches singleton method only.
class Demo def initialize(n) @iv = n end def hello() "Hello, @iv = #{@iv}" end end k = Demo.new(99) def k.hi "Hi, @iv = #{@iv}" end m = k.singleton_method(:hi) m.call #=> "Hi, @iv = 99" m = k.singleton_method(:hello) #=> NameError
Returns true
if obj responds to the given method. Private and protected methods are included in the search only if the optional second parameter evaluates to true
.
If the method is not implemented, as Process.fork
on Windows, File.lchmod
on GNU/Linux, etc., false is returned.
If the method is not defined, respond_to_missing?
method is called and the result is returned.
When the method name parameter is given as a string, the string is converted to a symbol.
Returns true
if mod is a singleton class or false
if it is an ordinary class or module.
class C end C.singleton_class? #=> false C.singleton_class.singleton_class? #=> true
Set
the cursor position at column
in the same line of the current position.
You must require ‘io/console’ to use this method.
Returns a new binding each time near TOPLEVEL_BINDING for runs that do not specify a binding.
Creates a new ipaddr containing the given network byte ordered string form of an IP address.
Returns the measured GC total time in nanoseconds.
Dispatch enter and leave events for BlockLocalVariableNode
nodes and continue walking the tree.
Parses the most indented lines into blocks that are marked and added to the frontier
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
.

Returns a copy of self
with leading substring prefix
removed:
'hello'.delete_prefix('hel') # => "lo" 'hello'.delete_prefix('llo') # => "hello" 'тест'.delete_prefix('те') # => "ст" 'こんにちは'.delete_prefix('こん') # => "にちは"

, String#delete_suffix
.
Like String#delete_prefix
, except that self
is modified in place. Returns self
if the prefix is removed, nil
otherwise.
Returns the next-smaller representable Float.
These examples show the internally stored values (64-bit hexadecimal) for each Float f
and for the corresponding f.pev_float
:
f = 5e-324 # 0x0000000000000001 f.prev_float # 0x0000000000000000 f = 0.01 # 0x3f847ae147ae147b f.prev_float # 0x3f847ae147ae147a
In the remaining examples here, the output is shown in the usual way (result to_s
):
0.01.prev_float # => 0.009999999999999998 1.0.prev_float # => 0.9999999999999999 100.0.prev_float # => 99.99999999999999 f = 0.01 (0..3).each_with_index {|i| printf "%2d %-20a %s\n", i, f, f.to_s; f = f.prev_float }
Output:
0 0x1.47ae147ae147bp-7 0.01 1 0x1.47ae147ae147ap-7 0.009999999999999998 2 0x1.47ae147ae1479p-7 0.009999999999999997 3 0x1.47ae147ae1478p-7 0.009999999999999995

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
