Return the receiver associated with this FrozenError
exception.
Invokes Module.prepend_features
on each parameter in reverse order.
Returns an array of Refinement
defined within the receiver.
module A refine Integer do end refine String do end end p A.refinements
produces:
[#<refinement:Integer@A>, #<refinement:String@A>]
Returns the list of Modules
nested at the point of call.
module M1 module M2 $a = Module.nesting end end $a #=> [M1::M2, M1] $a[0].name #=> "M1::M2"
In the first form, returns an array of the names of all constants accessible from the point of call. This list includes the names of all modules and classes defined in the global scope.
Module.constants.first(4) # => [:ARGF, :ARGV, :ArgumentError, :Array] Module.constants.include?(:SEEK_SET) # => false class IO Module.constants.include?(:SEEK_SET) # => true end
The second form calls the instance method constants
.
Registers filename to be loaded (using Kernel::require) the first time that const (which may be a String
or a symbol) is accessed in the namespace of mod.
module A end A.autoload(:B, "b") A::B.doit # autoloads "b"
If const in mod is defined as autoload, the file name to be loaded is replaced with filename. If const is defined but not as autoload, does nothing.
Returns filename to be loaded if name is registered as autoload
in the namespace of mod or one of its ancestors.
module A end A.autoload(:B, "b") A.autoload?(:B) #=> "b"
If inherit
is false, the lookup only checks the autoloads in the receiver:
class A autoload :CONST, "const.rb" end class B < A end B.autoload?(:CONST) #=> "const.rb", found in A (ancestor) B.autoload?(:CONST, false) #=> nil, not found in B itself
The equivalent of included
, but for prepended modules.
module A def self.prepended(mod) puts "#{self} prepended to #{mod}" end end module Enumerable prepend A end # => prints "A prepended to Enumerable"
Returns a string representing this module or class. For basic classes and modules, this is the name. For singletons, we show information on the thing we’re attached to as well.
Returns an array of the names of the constants accessible in mod. This includes the names of constants in any included modules (example at start of section), unless the inherit parameter is set to false
.
The implementation makes no guarantees about the order in which the constants are yielded.
IO.constants.include?(:SYNC) #=> true IO.constants(false).include?(:SYNC) #=> false

.
Synonym for $stdin.
Synonym for $stdout.
Returns a new Date object formed fom the arguments.
With no arguments, returns the date for January 1, -4712:
Date.ordinal.to_s # => "-4712-01-01"
With argument year
, returns the date for January 1 of that year:
Date.ordinal(2001).to_s # => "2001-01-01" Date.ordinal(-2001).to_s # => "-2001-01-01"
With positive argument yday
== n
, returns the date for the nth
day of the given year:
Date.ordinal(2001, 14).to_s # => "2001-01-14"
With negative argument yday
, counts backward from the end of the year:
Date.ordinal(2001, -14).to_s # => "2001-12-18"
Raises an exception if yday
is zero or out of range.
See argument start.
Returns a new Date object constructed from the present date:
Date.today.to_s # => "2022-07-06"
See argument start.
Returns a hash of values parsed from string
according to the given format
:
Date._strptime('2001-02-03', '%Y-%m-%d') # => {:year=>2001, :mon=>2, :mday=>3}
For other formats, see Formats for Dates and Times. (Unlike Date.strftime
, does not support flags and width.)
See also strptime(3).

(returns a Date object).
Returns a new Date object with values parsed from string
, according to the given format
:
Date.strptime('2001-02-03', '%Y-%m-%d') # => #<Date: 2001-02-03> Date.strptime('03-02-2001', '%d-%m-%Y') # => #<Date: 2001-02-03> Date.strptime('2001-034', '%Y-%j') # => #<Date: 2001-02-03> Date.strptime('2001-W05-6', '%G-W%V-%u') # => #<Date: 2001-02-03> Date.strptime('2001 04 6', '%Y %U %w') # => #<Date: 2001-02-03> Date.strptime('2001 05 6', '%Y %W %u') # => #<Date: 2001-02-03> Date.strptime('sat3feb01', '%a%d%b%y') # => #<Date: 2001-02-03>

Returns the Julian start date for calendar reform; if not an infinity, the returned value is suitable for passing to Date#jd
:
d = Date.new(2001, 2, 3, Date::ITALY) s = d.start # => 2299161.0 Date.jd(s).to_s # => "1582-10-15" d = Date.new(2001, 2, 3, Date::ENGLAND) s = d.start # => 2361222.0 Date.jd(s).to_s # => "1752-09-14" Date.new(2001, 2, 3, Date::GREGORIAN).start # => -Infinity Date.new(2001, 2, 3, Date::JULIAN).start # => Infinity
See argument start.
Calls the block with specified dates; returns self
.
The first date
is self
.
Each successive date
is date + step
, where step
is the numeric step size in days.
The last date is the last one that is before or equal to limit
, which should be a Date object.
Example:
limit = Date.new(2001, 12, 31) Date.new(2001).step(limit){|date| p date.to_s if date.mday == 31 }
Output:
"2001-01-31" "2001-03-31" "2001-05-31" "2001-07-31" "2001-08-31" "2001-10-31" "2001-12-31"
Returns an Enumerator
if no block is given.
Equivalent to step
with arguments min
and -1
.
Returns a string representation of the date in self
in ISO 8601 extended date format ('%Y-%m-%d'
):
Date.new(2001, 2, 3).to_s # => "2001-02-03"
Returns a string representation of the date in self
, formatted according the given format
:
Date.new(2001, 2, 3).strftime # => "2001-02-03"
For other formats, see Formats for Dates and Times.
Creates a DateTime
object denoting the given ordinal date.
DateTime.ordinal(2001,34) #=> #<DateTime: 2001-02-03T00:00:00+00:00 ...> DateTime.ordinal(2001,34,4,5,6,'+7') #=> #<DateTime: 2001-02-03T04:05:06+07:00 ...> DateTime.ordinal(2001,-332,-20,-55,-54,'+7') #=> #<DateTime: 2001-02-03T04:05:06+07:00 ...>
