module Enumerable
The Enumerable mixin provides collection classes with several traversal and searching methods, and with the ability to sort. The class must provide a method each, which yields successive members of the collection. If Enumerable#max, #min, or #sort is used, the objects in the collection must also implement a meaningful <=> operator, as these methods rely on an ordering between members of the collection.
Public Instance Methods
static VALUE
enum_all(VALUE obj)
{
struct MEMO *memo = MEMO_NEW(Qtrue, 0, 0);
rb_block_call(obj, id_each, 0, 0, ENUMFUNC(all), (VALUE)memo);
return memo->v1;
} Passes each element of the collection to the given block. The method returns true if the block never returns false or nil. If the block is not given, Ruby adds an implicit block of { |obj| obj } which will cause all? to return true when none of the collection members are false or nil.
%w[ant bear cat].all? { |word| word.length >= 3 } #=> true
%w[ant bear cat].all? { |word| word.length >= 4 } #=> false
[nil, true, 99].all? #=> false
static VALUE
enum_any(VALUE obj)
{
struct MEMO *memo = MEMO_NEW(Qfalse, 0, 0);
rb_block_call(obj, id_each, 0, 0, ENUMFUNC(any), (VALUE)memo);
return memo->v1;
} Passes each element of the collection to the given block. The method returns true if the block ever returns a value other than false or nil. If the block is not given, Ruby adds an implicit block of { |obj| obj } that will cause any? to return true if at least one of the collection members is not false or nil.
%w[ant bear cat].any? { |word| word.length >= 3 } #=> true
%w[ant bear cat].any? { |word| word.length >= 4 } #=> true
[nil, true, 99].any? #=> true
static VALUE
enum_chunk(VALUE enumerable)
{
VALUE enumerator;
if (!rb_block_given_p())
rb_raise(rb_eArgError, "no block given");
enumerator = rb_obj_alloc(rb_cEnumerator);
rb_ivar_set(enumerator, rb_intern("chunk_enumerable"), enumerable);
rb_ivar_set(enumerator, rb_intern("chunk_categorize"), rb_block_proc());
rb_block_call(enumerator, idInitialize, 0, 0, chunk_i, enumerator);
return enumerator;
} Enumerates over the items, chunking them together based on the return value of the block.
Consecutive elements which return the same block value are chunked together.
For example, consecutive even numbers and odd numbers can be chunked as follows.
[3, 1, 4, 1, 5, 9, 2, 6, 5, 3, 5].chunk { |n|
n.even?
}.each { |even, ary|
p [even, ary]
}
#=> [false, [3, 1]]
# [true, [4]]
# [false, [1, 5, 9]]
# [true, [2, 6]]
# [false, [5, 3, 5]]
This method is especially useful for sorted series of elements. The following example counts words for each initial letter.
open("/usr/share/dict/words", "r:iso-8859-1") { |f|
f.chunk { |line| line.ord }.each { |ch, lines| p [ch.chr, lines.length] }
}
#=> ["\n", 1]
# ["A", 1327]
# ["B", 1372]
# ["C", 1507]
# ["D", 791]
# ...
The following key values have special meaning:
-
niland:_separatorspecifies that the elements should be dropped. -
:_alonespecifies that the element should be chunked by itself.
Any other symbols that begin with an underscore will raise an error:
items.chunk { |item| :_underscore }
#=> RuntimeError: symbols beginning with an underscore are reserved
nil and :_separator can be used to ignore some elements.
For example, the sequence of hyphens in svn log can be eliminated as follows:
sep = "-"*72 + "\n"
IO.popen("svn log README") { |f|
f.chunk { |line|
line != sep || nil
}.each { |_, lines|
pp lines
}
}
#=> ["r20018 | knu | 2008-10-29 13:20:42 +0900 (Wed, 29 Oct 2008) | 2 lines\n",
# "\n",
# "* README, README.ja: Update the portability section.\n",
# "\n"]
# ["r16725 | knu | 2008-05-31 23:34:23 +0900 (Sat, 31 May 2008) | 2 lines\n",
# "\n",
# "* README, README.ja: Add a note about default C flags.\n",
# "\n"]
# ...
Paragraphs separated by empty lines can be parsed as follows:
File.foreach("README").chunk { |line|
/\A\s*\z/ !~ line || nil
}.each { |_, lines|
pp lines
}
:_alone can be used to force items into their own chunk. For example, you can put lines that contain a URL by themselves, and chunk the rest of the lines together, like this:
pattern = /http/
open(filename) { |f|
f.chunk { |line| line =~ pattern ? :_alone : true }.each { |key, lines|
pp lines
}
}
static VALUE
enum_chunk_while(VALUE enumerable)
{
VALUE enumerator;
VALUE pred;
pred = rb_block_proc();
enumerator = rb_obj_alloc(rb_cEnumerator);
rb_ivar_set(enumerator, rb_intern("slicewhen_enum"), enumerable);
rb_ivar_set(enumerator, rb_intern("slicewhen_pred"), pred);
rb_ivar_set(enumerator, rb_intern("slicewhen_inverted"), Qtrue);
rb_block_call(enumerator, idInitialize, 0, 0, slicewhen_i, enumerator);
return enumerator;
} Creates an enumerator for each chunked elements. The beginnings of chunks are defined by the block.
This method split each chunk using adjacent elements, elt_before and elt_after, in the receiver enumerator. This method split chunks between elt_before and elt_after where the block returns false.
The block is called the length of the receiver enumerator minus one.
The result enumerator yields the chunked elements as an array. So each method can be called as follows:
enum.chunk_while { |elt_before, elt_after| bool }.each { |ary| ... } Other methods of the Enumerator class and Enumerable module, such as to_a, map, etc., are also usable.
For example, one-by-one increasing subsequence can be chunked as follows:
a = [1,2,4,9,10,11,12,15,16,19,20,21]
b = a.chunk_while {|i, j| i+1 == j }
p b.to_a #=> [[1, 2], [4], [9, 10, 11, 12], [15, 16], [19, 20, 21]]
c = b.map {|a| a.length < 3 ? a : "#{a.first}-#{a.last}" }
p c #=> [[1, 2], [4], "9-12", [15, 16], "19-21"]
d = c.join(",")
p d #=> "1,2,4,9-12,15,16,19-21"
Increasing (non-decreasing) subsequence can be chunked as follows:
a = [0, 9, 2, 2, 3, 2, 7, 5, 9, 5]
p a.chunk_while {|i, j| i <= j }.to_a
#=> [[0, 9], [2, 2, 3], [2, 7], [5, 9], [5]]
Adjacent evens and odds can be chunked as follows: (Enumerable#chunk is another way to do it.)
a = [7, 5, 9, 2, 0, 7, 9, 4, 2, 0]
p a.chunk_while {|i, j| i.even? == j.even? }.to_a
#=> [[7, 5, 9], [2, 0], [7, 9], [4, 2, 0]]

If you specify a symbol instead, then each element in the collection will be passed to the named method of memo. In either case, the result becomes the new value for memo. At the end of the iteration, the final value of memo is the return value for the method.
If you do not explicitly specify an initial value for memo, then the first element of collection is used as the initial value of memo.

} Returns a lazy enumerator, whose methods map/collect, flat_map/collect_concat, select/find_all, reject, grep, #grep_v, zip, take, #take_while, drop, and #drop_while enumerate values only on an as-needed basis. However, if a block is given to zip, values are enumerated immediately.

(x..z).select {|y|
x**2 + y**2 == z**2

The result enumerator yields the chunked elements as an array. So each method can be called as follows:
enum.slice_before(pattern).each { |ary| ... }
enum.slice_before { |elt| bool }.each { |ary| ... } Other methods of the Enumerator class and Enumerable module, such as map, etc., are also usable.
For example, iteration over ChangeLog entries can be implemented as follows:
# iterate over ChangeLog entries.
open("ChangeLog") { |f|
f.slice_before(/\A\S/).each { |e| pp e }
}
# same as above. block is used instead of pattern argument.
open("ChangeLog") { |f|
f.slice_before { |line| /\A\S/ === line }.each { |e| pp e }
}
“svn proplist -R” produces multiline output for each file. They can be chunked as follows:
IO.popen([{"LC_ALL"=>"C"}, "svn", "proplist", "-R"]) { |f|
f.lines.slice_before(/\AProp/).each { |lines| p lines }
}
#=> ["Properties on '.':\n", " svn:ignore\n", " svk:merge\n"]
# ["Properties on 'goruby.c':\n", " svn:eol-style\n"]
# ["Properties on 'complex.c':\n", " svn:mime-type\n", " svn:eol-style\n"]
# ["Properties on 'regparse.c':\n", " svn:eol-style\n"]
# ...
If the block needs to maintain state over multiple elements, local variables can be used. For example, three or more consecutive increasing numbers can be squashed as follows:
a = [0, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9]
prev = a[0]
p a.slice_before { |e|
prev, prev2 = e, prev
prev2 + 1 != e
}.map { |es|
es.length <= 2 ? es.join(",") : "#{es.first}-#{es.last}"
}.join(",")
#=> "0,2-4,6,7,9"
However local variables should be used carefully if the result enumerator is enumerated twice or more. The local variables should be initialized for each enumeration. Enumerator.new can be used to do it.
# Word wrapping. This assumes all characters have same width.
def wordwrap(words, maxwidth)

The block is called the length of the receiver enumerator minus one.

d = c.join(",")

Increasing (non-decreasing) subsequence can be chunked as follows:
a = [0, 9, 2, 2, 3, 2, 7, 5, 9, 5]
p a.slice_when {|i, j| i > j }.to_a
#=> [[0, 9], [2, 2, 3], [2, 7], [5, 9], [5]]
Adjacent evens and odds can be chunked as follows: (Enumerable#chunk is another way to do it.)
a = [7, 5, 9, 2, 0, 7, 9, 4, 2, 0]
p a.slice_when {|i, j| i.even? != j.even? }.to_a
#=> [[7, 5, 9], [2, 0], [7, 9], [4, 2, 0]]
Paragraphs (non-empty lines with trailing empty lines) can be chunked as follows: (See #chunk to ignore empty lines.)
lines = ["foo\n", "bar\n", "\n", "baz\n", "qux\n"]
p lines.slice_when {|l1, l2| /\A\s*\z/ =~ l1 && /\S/ =~ l2 }.to_a
#=> [["foo\n", "bar\n", "\n"], ["baz\n", "qux\n"]]

enum_sort(VALUE obj)
{
return rb_ary_sort(enum_to_a(0, 0, obj));
} Returns an array containing the items in enum sorted, either according to their own <=> method, or by using the results of the supplied block. The block should return -1, 0, or +1 depending on the comparison between a and b. As of Ruby 1.8, the method Enumerable#sort_by implements a built-in Schwartzian Transform, useful when key computation or comparison is expensive.

} Sorts enum using a set of keys generated by mapping the values in enum through the given block.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
%w{apple pear fig}.sort_by { |word| word.length}
#=> ["fig", "pear", "apple"]
The current implementation of sort_by generates an array of tuples containing the original collection element and the mapped value. This makes sort_by fairly expensive when the keysets are simple.
require 'benchmark'
a = (1..100000).map { rand(100000) }
Benchmark.bm(10) do |b|
b.report("Sort") { a.sort }
b.report("Sort by") { a.sort_by { |a| a } }
end
produces:
user system total real Sort 0.180000 0.000000 0.180000 ( 0.175469) Sort by 1.980000 0.040000 2.020000 ( 2.013586)
However, consider the case where comparing the keys is a non-trivial operation. The following code sorts some files on modification time using the basic sort method.
files = Dir["*"]
sorted = files.sort { |a, b| File.new(a).mtime <=> File.new(b).mtime }
sorted #=> ["mon", "tues", "wed", "thurs"]
This sort is inefficient: it generates two new File objects during every comparison. A slightly better technique is to use the Kernel#test method to generate the modification times directly.
files = Dir["*"]
sorted = files.sort { |a, b|
test(?M, a) <=> test(?M, b)
}
sorted #=> ["mon", "tues", "wed", "thurs"]
This still generates many unnecessary Time objects. A more efficient technique is to cache the sort keys (modification times in this case) before the sort. Perl users often call this approach a Schwartzian Transform, after Randal Schwartz. We construct a temporary array, where each element is an array containing our sort key along with the filename. We sort this array, and then extract the filename from the result.
sorted = Dir["*"].collect { |f|
[test(?M, f), f]
}.sort.collect { |f| f[1] }
sorted #=> ["mon", "tues", "wed", "thurs"]
This is exactly what sort_by does internally.
sorted = Dir["*"].sort_by { |f| test(?M, f) }
sorted #=> ["mon", "tues", "wed", "thurs"]

} Takes one element from enum and merges corresponding elements from each args. This generates a sequence of n-element arrays, where n is one more than the count of arguments. The length of the resulting sequence will be enum#size. If the size of any argument is less than enum#size, nil values are supplied. If a block is given, it is invoked for each output array, otherwise an array of arrays is returned.
