Integer#downto

Calls the given block with each integer value from self down to limit; returns self:

a = []
10.downto(5) {|i| a << i }              # => 10
a                                       # => [10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5]
a = []
0.downto(-5) {|i| a << i }              # => 0
a                                       # => [0, -1, -2, -3, -4, -5]
4.downto(5) {|i| fail 'Cannot happen' } # => 4

With no block given, returns an Enumerator.

Complex#numerator

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.

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.

Related: Complex#numerator.

Numeric#numerator

Returns the numerator.

Numeric#denominator

Returns the denominator (always positive).

String#upto

With a block given, calls the block with each String value returned by successive calls to String#succ; the first value is self, the next is self.succ, and so on; the sequence terminates when value other_string is reached; returns self:

'a8'.upto('b6') {|s| print s, ' ' } # => "a8"

Output:

a8 a9 b0 b1 b2 b3 b4 b5 b6

If argument exclusive is given as a truthy object, the last value is omitted:

'a8'.upto('b6', true) {|s| print s, ' ' } # => "a8"

Output:

a8 a9 b0 b1 b2 b3 b4 b5

If other_string would not be reached, does not call the block:

'25'.upto('5') {|s| fail s }
'aa'.upto('a') {|s| fail s }

With no block given, returns a new Enumerator:

'a8'.upto('b6') # => #<Enumerator: "a8":upto("b6")>

Float#numerator

Returns the numerator. The result is machine dependent.

n = 0.3.numerator    #=> 5404319552844595
d = 0.3.denominator  #=> 18014398509481984
n.fdiv(d)            #=> 0.3

Float#denominator

Returns the denominator (always positive). The result is machine dependent.

Fiber#storage

Returns a copy of the storage hash for the fiber. The method can only be called on the Fiber.current.

Fiber#storage=

Sets the storage hash for the fiber. This feature is experimental and may change in the future. The method can only be called on the Fiber.current.

You should be careful about using this method as you may inadvertently clear important fiber-storage state. You should mostly prefer to assign specific keys in the storage using Fiber::[]=.

You can also use Fiber.new(storage: nil) to create a fiber with an empty storage.

Example:

while request = request_queue.pop
  # Reset the per-request state:
  Fiber.current.storage = nil
  handle_request(request)
end

File::directory?

With string object given, returns true if path is a string path leading to a directory, or to a symbolic link to a directory; false otherwise:

File.directory?('.')              # => true
File.directory?('foo')            # => false
File.symlink('.', 'dirlink')      # => 0
File.directory?('dirlink')        # => true
File.symlink('t,txt', 'filelink') # => 0
File.directory?('filelink')       # => false

Argument path can be an IO object.

Module#autoload

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.

Files that are currently being loaded must not be registered for autoload.

Module#autoload?

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

Module#ancestors

Returns a list of modules included/prepended in mod (including mod itself).

module Mod
  include Math
  include Comparable
  prepend Enumerable
end

Mod.ancestors        #=> [Enumerable, Mod, Comparable, Math]
Math.ancestors       #=> [Math]
Enumerable.ancestors #=> [Enumerable]

Date::today

Returns a new Date object constructed from the present date:

Date.today.to_s # => "2022-07-06"

See argument start.

Date#upto

Equivalent to step with arguments max and 1.

Date#downto

Equivalent to step with arguments min and -1.

Time#gmtoff

Returns the offset in seconds between the timezones of UTC and self:

Time.utc(2000, 1, 1).utc_offset   # => 0
Time.local(2000, 1, 1).utc_offset # => -21600 # -6*3600, or minus six hours.

IO#goto

Set the cursor position at line and column.

You must require ‘io/console’ to use this method.
