Method: Money#split

Defined in:
lib/money/money.rb

#splitArray<Money>

Splits a given amount in parts without losing pennies. The left-over pennies will be distributed round-robin amongst the parties. This means that parts listed first will likely receive more pennies than ones listed later.

Pass [2, 1, 1] as input to give twice as much to part1 as part2 or part3 which results in 50% of the cash to party1, 25% to part2, and 25% to part3. Passing a number instead of an array will split the amount evenly (without losing pennies when rounding).

Examples:

Money.new(5,   "USD").allocate([3, 7]) #=> [Money.new(2), Money.new(3)]
Money.new(100, "USD").allocate([1, 1, 1]) #=> [Money.new(34), Money.new(33), Money.new(33)]
Money.new(100, "USD").allocate(2) #=> [Money.new(50), Money.new(50)]
Money.new(100, "USD").allocate(3) #=> [Money.new(34), Money.new(33), Money.new(33)]

Parameters:

  • parts (Array<Numeric>, Numeric)

    how amount should be distributed to parts

Returns:
