123.5.to_s #=> "123.5" String(123.5) #=> "123.5" Usually, String() will just call #to_s. Methods Kernel#sprintf and String#% behave similar to C: sprintf("%s", 123.5) #=> "123.5" "%s" % 123.5 #=> "123.5" "%d&quot...

"123.50".to_i #=> 123 Integer("123.50") #=> 123 A string will take the value of any integer at its start, but will not take integers from anywhere else: "123-foo".to_i # => 123 "foo-123".to_i # => 0 However, there is a difference when ...

"123.50".to_f #=> 123.5 Float("123.50") #=> 123.5 However, there is a difference when the string is not a valid Float: "something".to_f #=> 0.0 Float("something") # ArgumentError: invalid value for Float(): "something"

var re = /[a-z]+/; if (re.test("foo")) { console.log("Match exists."); } The test method performs a search to see if a regular expression matches a string. The regular expression [a-z]+ will search for one or more lowercase letters. Since the pattern matches the string,...

Setting a specific Seed will create a fixed random-number series: random.seed(5) # Create a fixed state print(random.randrange(0, 10)) # Get a random integer between 0 and 9 # Out: 9 print(random.randrange(0, 10)) # Out: 4 Resetting the seed will create the same &qu...

x > y x < y These operators compare two types of values, they're the less than and greater than operators. For numbers this simply compares the numerical values to see which is larger: 12 > 4 # True 12 < 4 # False 1 < 4 # True For strings they will compare lexicographical...

Using typedef It might be handy to use a typedef instead of declaring the function pointer each time by hand. The syntax for declaring a typedef for a function pointer is: typedef returnType (*name)(parameters); Example: Posit that we have a function, sort, that expects a function pointer to ...

Arrays can be created by enclosing a list of elements in square brackets ([ and ]). Array elements in this notation are separated with commas: array = [1, 2, 3, 4] Arrays can contain any kind of objects in any combination with no restrictions on type: array = [1, 'b', nil, [3, 4]]

Arrays of strings can be created using ruby's percent string syntax: array = %w(one two three four) This is functionally equivalent to defining the array as: array = ['one', 'two', 'three', 'four'] Instead of %w() you may use other matching pairs of delimiters: %w{...}, %w[...] or %w<...&...
