chr downto integer? next step succ times upto



Subklasser: Bignum, Fixnum

Integer is the basis for the two concrete classes that hold whole numbers, Bignum and Fixnum.

instansmetoder
chr int.chr -> aString

Returns a string containing the ASCII character represented by the receiver's value.

65.chr » "A"
?a.chr » "a"
230.chr » "\346"

downto int.downto( anInteger ) {| i | block }

-> int

Iterates block, passing decreasing values from int down to and including anInteger.

5.downto(1) { |n| print n, ".. " }
print "  Liftoff!\n"
produces:
5.. 4.. 3.. 2.. 1..   Liftoff!

integer? int.integer? -> true

Always returns true.

next int.next -> anInteger

Returns the Integer equal to int + 1.

1.next » 2
(-1).next » 0

step int.step( endNum, step ) {| i | block }

-> int

Invokes block with the sequence of numbers starting at int, incremented by step on each call. The loop finishes when the value to be passed to the block is greater than endNum (if step is positive) or less than endNum (if step is negative).

1.step(10, 2) { |i| print i, " " }
produces:
1 3 5 7 9

succ int.succ -> anInteger

Synonym for Integer#next .

times int.times {| i | block }

-> int

Iterates block int times, passing in values from zero to int - 1.

5.times do |i|
  print i, " "
end
print "\n"
produces:
0 1 2 3 4

upto int.upto( anInteger ) {| i | block }

-> int

Iterates block, passing in integer values from int up to and including anInteger.

5.upto(10) { |i| print i, " " }
produces:
5 6 7 8 9 10
