Instance Method Details

#choice ⇒ Object

Implemented in Ruby 1.9

Examples:

[1,2,3,4].choice => 2
[1,2,3,4].choice => 4
[1,2,3,4].choice => 3

Returns:

  • (Object) —

    a random item from the array

# File 'lib/sixarm_ruby_ramp/array.rb', line 48

def choice
  self[Kernel.rand(size)]
end

#choices(count) ⇒ Array

Returns a new array filled with count calls to choice.

Examples:

[1,2,3,4].choices(2) => [3,1]
[1,2,3,4].choices(3) => [4,2,3]

Returns:

  • (Array) —

    a new array filled with count calls to choice

# File 'lib/sixarm_ruby_ramp/array.rb', line 59

def choices(count)
  arr = Array.new
  count.times { arr << self.choice }
  return arr
end

#divvy ⇒ Object

Divvy the array– REMOVED. Change to sixarm_ruby_array_slice gem Array#slice_by_share method.

# File 'lib/sixarm_ruby_ramp/array.rb', line 98

def divvy
  raise "Change to sixarm_ruby_array_slice gem Array#slice_by_share method."
end

#intersect ⇒ Array

In typical usage, each item is an array.

Examples:

arr=[[1,2,3,4],[3,4,5,6]]
arr.intersect
=> [3,4]

with proc

arr.map(&:foo).intersect
=> foos that are in all of the array items

with nil

[].intersect => []

Returns:

  • (Array) —

    the intersection of the array’s items.

147
148
 
# File 'lib/sixarm_ruby_ramp/array.rb', line 146

def intersect
  inject{|inj,item| inj & item.to_a } || []
end

#join(*fixes) ⇒ String

Concatenate the items into a string by join.

Examples:

Join with infix

list=['a','b','c']
list.join("*") => "a*b*c"

Join with prefix and suffix

list=['a','b','c']
list.join("[","]") => "[a][b][c]"

Join with prefix, suffix, and infix

list=['a','b','c']
list.join("*","[","]") => "[a]*[b]*[c]"

Returns:

  • (String) —

    concatenated string

  else
    raise ArgumentError, "join() takes 0-3 arguments; you gave #{fixes.size}]"
  end
end

#join_prefix_suffix(prefix, suffix) ⇒ String

Concatenate the items by joining using a prefix string and suffix string.

Examples:

list=['a','b','c']
list.join("[","]") => "[a][b][c]"

Returns:

  • (String) —

    concatenated string

end

#join_prefix_suffix_infix(prefix, suffix, infix) ⇒ String

Concatenate the items by joining using a prefix string, suffix string, and infix string.

  prefix = prefix.to_s
  suffix = suffix.to_s
  infix = infix.to_s
  return self.map{|item| prefix + item.to_s + suffix}.ruby_join(infix)
end

#onto(values) ⇒ Hash

This is identical to calling foo.zip(values).to_h

Examples:

foo=[:a,:b,:c]
goo=[:x,:y,:z]
foo.onto(goo) => {:a=>:x, :b=>:y, :c=>:z}

Returns:

  • (Hash) —

    a hash of this array’s items as keys, mapped onto another array’s items as values.

alias :ruby_join :join

#shifted(number_of_items = 1) ⇒ Array Also known as: cdr, rest

Ruby programmers may prefer this alias wording:

list.first => 'a'
list.rest => ['b','c']

LISP programmers may prefer this alias wording:

list.car => 'a'
list.cdr => ['b','c']

Examples:

list=['a','b','c']
list.shift => 'a'
list.shifted => ['b','c']

with length

list.shifted(0) => ['a','b','c']
list.shifted(1) => ['b','c']
list.shifted(2) => ['c']
list.shifted(3) => []

Returns:

  • (Array) —

    the rest of the items of self, after a shift.

  (number_of_items >= 0) or (raise ArgumentError, "number_of_items must be >= 0")
  slice(number_of_items,self.length-number_of_items)
end

#shifted!(number_of_items = 1) ⇒ Array Also known as: cdr!, rest!

Delete the first number_of_items items.

If n is greater than the array size, then return []

Examples:

list=['a','b','c']
list.shifted!
list => ['b','c']

with length:

list=['a','b','c']
list.shifted!(2)
list => ['c']

Returns:

  • (Array) —

    the array, minus the deleted items.

  (number_of_items >= 0) or (raise ArgumentError, "number_of_items must be >= 0")
  slice!(0,number_of_items)
  return self
end

#shuffle ⇒ Array

Randomly arrange the array items.

This implementation is optimized for speed, not for memory use. See codeidol.com/other/rubyckbk/Arrays/Shuffling-an-Array/

Examples:

list=
list=['a','b','c']
list.shuffle!
list => ['c','a','b']

Returns:

  • (Array) —

    a new array with the items shuffled.

#shuffle! ⇒ Array

This implementation is optimized for speed, not for memory use. See codeidol.com/other/rubyckbk/Arrays/Shuffling-an-Array/

Examples:

list=

#union ⇒ Array
