module Enumerable(T)
Overview
The Enumerable
mixin provides collection classes with several traversal, searching,
filtering and querying methods.
Including types must provide an #each
method, which yields successive members
of the collection.
For example:
class Three
include Enumerable(Int32)
def each
yield 1
yield 2
yield 3
end
end
three = Three.new
three.to_a # => [1, 2, 3]
three.select &.odd? # => [1, 3]
three.all? { |x| x < 10 } # => true
Note that most search and filter methods traverse an Enumerable eagerly,
producing an Array
as the result. For a lazy alternative refer to
the Iterator
and Iterable
modules.

Instance Method Detail
Returns true
if the passed block returns a value other than false
or nil
for all elements of the collection.
["ant", "bear", "cat"].all? { |word| word.size >= 3 } # => true
["ant", "bear", "cat"].all? { |word| word.size >= 4 } # => false
Returns true
if none of the elements of the collection is false
or nil
.
[nil, true, 99].all? # => false
[15].all? # => true
Returns true
if the passed block returns a value other than false
or nil
for at least one element of the collection.
["ant", "bear", "cat"].any? { |word| word.size >= 4 } # => true
["ant", "bear", "cat"].any? { |word| word.size > 4 } # => false
Returns true
if at least one of the collection members is not false
or nil
.
[nil, true, 99].any? # => true
[nil, false].any? # => false
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.
ary = [3, 1, 4, 1, 5, 9, 2, 6, 5, 3, 5].chunks { |n| n.even? }
ary # => [{false, [3, 1]}, {true, [4]}, {false, [1, 5, 9]}, {true, [2, 6]}, {false, [5, 3, 5]}]
The following key values have special meaning:
Enumerable::Chunk::Drop
specifies that the elements should be droppedEnumerable::Chunk::Alone
specifies that the element should be chunked by itself
See also: Iterator#chunk
.
Returns an Array
with the results of running the block against each element
of the collection, removing nil
values.
["Alice", "Bob"].map { |name| name.match(/^A./) } # => [#<Regex::MatchData "Al">, nil]
["Alice", "Bob"].compact_map { |name| name.match(/^A./) } # => [#<Regex::MatchData "Al">]
Returns the number of elements in the collection for which
the passed block returns true
.
[1, 2, 3, 4].count { |i| i % 2 == 0 } # => 2
Returns the number of times that the passed item is present in the collection.
[1, 2, 3, 4].count(3) # => 1
Iterates over the collection yielding chunks of size count, but advancing one by one.
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5].each_cons(2) do |cons|
puts cons
end
Prints:
[1, 2]
[2, 3]
[3, 4]
[4, 5]
By default, a new array is created and yielded for each consecutive slice of elements.
- If reuse is given, the array can be reused
- If reuse is an
Array
, this array will be reused - If reuse is truthy, the method will create a new array and reuse it.
This can be used to prevent many memory allocations when each slice of interest is to be used in a read-only fashion.
Iterates over the collection in slices of size count, and runs the block for each of those.
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5].each_slice(2) do |slice|
puts slice
end
Prints:
[1, 2]
[3, 4]
[5]
Note that the last one can be smaller.
By default, a new array is created and yielded for each slice.
- If reuse is given, the array can be reused
- If reuse is an
Array
, this array will be reused - If reuse is truthy, the method will create a new array and reuse it.
This can be used to prevent many memory allocations when each slice of interest is to be used in a read-only fashion.
Iterates over the collection, yielding both the elements and their index.
["Alice", "Bob"].each_with_index do |user, i|
puts "User ##{i}: #{user}"
end
Prints:
User # 0: Alice
User # 1: Bob
Accepts an optional offset parameter, which tells it to start counting from there. So, a more human friendly version of the previous snippet would be:
["Alice", "Bob"].each_with_index(1) do |user, i|
puts "User ##{i}: #{user}"
end
Which would print:
User # 1: Alice
User # 2: Bob
Iterates over the collection, passing each element and the initial object obj. Returns that object.
hash = ["Alice", "Bob"].each_with_object({} of String => Int32) do |user, sizes|
sizes[user] = user.size
end
hash # => {"Alice" => 5, "Bob" => 3}
Returns the first element in the collection for which the passed block is true
.
Accepts an optional parameter if_none, to set what gets returned if
no element is found (defaults to nil
).

[1, 2, 3, 4].find { |i| i > 8 } # => nil
[1, 2, 3, 4].find(-1) { |i| i > 8 } # => -1

with the first count elements in the collection.
If count is bigger than the number of elements in the collection, returns as many as possible. This include the case of calling it over an empty collection, in which case it returns an empty array.

if the collection is empty.
Returns the first element in the collection.

with all the elements in the collection that
match the RegExp
pattern.

Returns an Array
with chunks in the given size, eventually filled up
with given value or nil
.
[1, 2, 3].in_groups_of(2, 0) # => [[1, 2], [3, 0]]
[1, 2, 3].in_groups_of(2) # => [[1, 2], [3, nil]]
Yields a block with the chunks in the given size.
[1, 2, 4].in_groups_of(2, 0) { |e| p e.sum }

By default, a new array is created and yielded for each group.
- If reuse is given, the array can be reused
- If reuse is an
Array
, this array will be reused - If reuse is truthy, the method will create a new array and reuse it.
This can be used to prevent many memory allocations when each slice of interest is to be used in a read-only fashion.
Returns true
if the collection contains obj, false
otherwise.
[1, 2, 3].includes?(2) # => true
[1, 2, 3].includes?(5) # => false

Returns nil
if obj is not in the collection.
Converts an Enumerable
to a Hash
by using the value returned by the block
as the hash key.
Be aware, if two elements return the same value as a key one will override
the other. If you want to keep all values, then you should probably use
#group_by
instead.
["Anna", "Ary", "Alice"].index_by { |e| e.size }
# => {4 => "Anna", 3 => "Ary", 5 => "Alice"}
["Anna", "Ary", "Alice", "Bob"].index_by { |e| e.size }
