Instance Method Details

#map(method = nil, *args, &block) ⇒ Object Also known as: collect

Returns a new array containing the results of running block once for every element in the array.

Examples:

array = ['foo', 'bar']

# No arguments
array.map(:capitalize) => ['Foo', 'Bar']

# With arguments
array.map(:+, 'x') => ['foox', 'barx']

# With arguments and a block
array.map(:capitalize){ |e| e + 'x' } => ['Foox', 'Barx']

– The Array class actually has its own implementation of the map method, hence the duplication.

#map!(method = nil, *args, &block) ⇒ Object Also known as: collect!

Same as Array#map, but modifies the receiver in place. Also note that a block is not required. If no block is given, an array of values is returned instead
