Iterates over array elements.
When a block given, passes each successive array element to the block; returns self:
a = [:foo, 'bar', 2] a.each {|element| puts "#{element.class} #{element}" }
Output:
Symbol foo String bar Integer 2
Allows the array to be modified during iteration:
a = [:foo, 'bar', 2] a.each {|element| puts element; a.clear if element.to_s.start_with?('b') }
Output:
foo bar
When no block given, returns a new Enumerator:
a = [:foo, 'bar', 2] e = a.each e # => #<Enumerator: [:foo, "bar", 2]:each> a1 = e.each {|element| puts "#{element.class} #{element}" }
Output:
Symbol foo String bar Integer 2

Returns a Hash containing implementation-dependent counters inside the VM.
This hash includes information about method/constant caches:
{
:constant_cache_invalidations=>2,
:constant_cache_misses=>14,
:global_cvar_state=>27
}
If USE_DEBUG_COUNTER is enabled, debug counters will be included.
The contents of the hash are implementation specific and may be changed in the future.
This method is only expected to work on C Ruby.
Returns a 1-character string containing the character represented by the value of self, according to the given encoding.
65.chr # => "A" 0.chr # => "\x00" 255.chr # => "\xFF" string = 255.chr(Encoding::UTF_8) string.encoding # => Encoding::UTF_8
Raises an exception if self is negative.
Related: Integer#ord.
Returns self truncated (toward zero) to a precision of ndigits decimal digits.
When ndigits is negative, the returned value has at least ndigits.abs trailing zeros:
555.truncate(-1) # => 550 555.truncate(-2) # => 500 -555.truncate(-2) # => -500
Returns self when ndigits is zero or positive.
555.truncate # => 555 555.truncate(50) # => 555
Related: Integer#round.
Returns the remainder after dividing self by other.
Examples:
11.remainder(4) # => 3 11.remainder(-4) # => 3 -11.remainder(4) # => -3 -11.remainder(-4) # => -3 12.remainder(4) # => 0 12.remainder(-4) # => 0 -12.remainder(4) # => 0 -12.remainder(-4) # => 0 13.remainder(4.0) # => 1.0 13.remainder(Rational(4, 1)) # => (1/1)
Returns self.
Returns 1.
Returns the value as a rational. The optional argument eps is always ignored.
Returns the imaginary value for self:
Complex.rect(7).imag # => 0 Complex.rect(9, -4).imag # => -4
If self was created with polar coordinates, the returned value is computed, and may be inexact:
Complex.polar(1, Math::PI/4).imag # => 0.7071067811865476 # Square root of 2.
Returns the imaginary value for self:
Complex.rect(7).imag # => 0 Complex.rect(9, -4).imag # => -4
If self was created with polar coordinates, the returned value is computed, and may be inexact:
Complex.polar(1, Math::PI/4).imag # => 0.7071067811865476 # Square root of 2.
Returns the absolute value (magnitude) for self; see polar coordinates:
Complex.polar(-1, 0).abs # => 1.0
If self was created with rectangular coordinates, the returned value is computed, and may be inexact:
Complex.rectangular(1, 1).abs # => 1.4142135623730951 # The square root of 2.
Returns the conjugate of self, Complex.rect(self.imag, self.real):
Complex.rect(1, 2).conj # => (1-2i)
Returns the Complex object created from the numerators of the real and imaginary parts of self, after converting each part to the lowest common denominator of the two:
c = Complex.rect(Rational(2, 3), Rational(3, 4)) # => ((2/3)+(3/4)*i) c.numerator # => (8+9i)
In this example, the lowest common denominator of the two parts is 12; the two converted parts may be thought of as Rational(8, 12) and Rational(9, 12), whose numerators, respectively, are 8 and 9; so the returned value of c.numerator is Complex.rect(8, 9).
Related: Complex#denominator.
Returns the denominator of self, which is the least common multiple of self.real.denominator and self.imag.denominator:
Complex.rect(Rational(1, 2), Rational(2, 3)).denominator # => 6
Note that n.denominator of a non-rational numeric is 1.

Returns a Rational object whose value is exactly or approximately equivalent to that of self.real.
With no argument epsilon given, returns a Rational object whose value is exactly equal to that of self.real.rationalize:
Complex.rect(1, 0).rationalize # => (1/1) Complex.rect(1, Rational(0, 1)).rationalize # => (1/1) Complex.rect(3.14159, 0).rationalize # => (314159/100000)
With argument epsilon given, returns a Rational object whose value is exactly or approximately equal to that of self.real to the given precision:
