Ruby字符串

在Ruby中的String对象持有和操纵的任意序列的一个或多个字节,通常表示人类语言的字符表示。

简单的字符串文本括在单引号(单引号字符)。引号内的文本的字符串值:

'This is a simple Ruby string literal'

如果需要内放置一个单引号,单引号的字符串文字,在它前面加上一个反斜杠Ruby解释器不认为终止字符串:

'Won't you read O'Reilly's book?'

反斜杠也可以转义另一个反斜杠,这样第二个反斜杠本身不是解释为转义字符。

以下是字符串相关的功能Ruby的。

表达式替换:

表达式替换嵌入任何Ruby表达式的值转换成字符串使用的一种手段,可用 #{ and }替换:

#!/usr/bin/ruby x, y, z = 12, 36, 72 puts "The value of x is #{ x }." puts "The sum of x and y is #{ x + y }." puts "The average was #{ (x + y + z)/3 }."

这将产生以下结果:

The value of x is 12. The sum of x and y is 48. The average was 40.

一般分隔的字符串:

一般分隔的字符串,可以创建字符串匹配任意分隔符,比如,虽然包含在一对,如:., !, (, {, <, 等,前面加上一个百分号(%). Q, q 和 x,有特殊的含义一般可以分隔的字符串。

%{Ruby is fun.} equivalent to "Ruby is fun." %Q{ Ruby is fun. } equivalent to " Ruby is fun. " %q[Ruby is fun.] equivalent to a single-quoted string %x!ls! equivalent to back tick command output `ls`

转义字符:

下表是转义或反斜线符号可以表示非打印字符列表。

注: 在双引号的字符串,被解释为转义字符,在一个单引号字符的转义字符被保留。

字符编码方式:

Ruby的默认字符集是ASCII码,字符可能会由单字节表示。如果使用UTF-8或另一种现代的字符集,字符可能会以四个字节表示。

可以更改字符集使用$KCODE的在程序的开始行,像这样:

$KCODE = 'u'

以下是 $KCODE 可能的值

代码 描述
a ASCII (same as none). This is the default.
e EUC.
n None (same as ASCII).
u UTF-8.

字符串的内置方法:

我们需要有一个String对象实例调用一个String方法。以下的方法来创建String对象的一个实例:

new [String.new(str="")]

这将返回一个新的字符串对象,其中包含str的一个副本。现在使用str的对象,我们可以任何可用实例方法的。例如:

#!/usr/bin/ruby myStr = String.new("THIS IS TEST") foo = myStr.downcase

puts "#{foo}"

这将产生以下结果:

this is test

下面是公共字符串方法(假设str是一个String对象):

SN 方法及描述
1 str % arg
Formats a string using a format specification. arg must be an array if it contains more than one substitution. For information on the format specification. see sprintf under "Kernel Module."
2 str * integer
Returns a new string containing integer times str. In other words, str is repeated integer imes.
3 str + other_str
Concatenates other_str to str.
4 str << obj
Concatenates an object to str. If the object is a Fixnum in the range 0.255, it is converted to a character. Compare it with concat.
5 str <=> other_str
Compares str with other_str, returning -1 (less than), 0 (equal), or 1 (greater than). The comparison is casesensitive.
6 str == obj
Tests str and obj for equality. If obj is not a String, returns false; returns true if str <=> obj returns 0.
7 str =~ obj
Matches str against a regular expression pattern obj. Returns the position where the match starts; otherwise, false.
8 str =~ obj
Matches str against a regular expression pattern obj. Returns the position where the match starts; otherwise, false.
9 str.capitalize
Capitalizes a string.
10 str.capitalize!
Same as capitalize, but changes are made in place.
11 str.casecmp
Makes a case-insensitive comparison of strings.
12 str.center
Centers a string.
13 str.chomp
Removes the record separator ($/), usually , from the end of a string. If no record separator exists, does nothing.
14 str.chomp!
Same as chomp, but changes are made in place.
15 str.chop
Removes the last character in str.
16 str.chop!
Same as chop, but changes are made in place.
17 str.concat(other_str)
Concatenates other_str to str.
18 str.count(str, ...)
Counts one or more sets of characters. If there is more than one set of characters, counts the intersection of those sets
19 str.crypt(other_str)
Applies a one-way cryptographic hash to str. The argument is the salt string, which should be two characters long, each character in the range a.z, A.Z, 0.9, . or /.
20 str.delete(other_str, ...)
Returns a copy of str with all characters in the intersection of its arguments deleted.
21 str.delete!(other_str, ...)
Same as delete, but changes are made in place.
22 str.downcase
Returns a copy of str with all uppercase letters replaced with lowercase.
23 str.downcase!
Same as downcase, but changes are made in place.
24 str.dump
Returns a version of str with all nonprinting characters replaced by nn notation and all special characters escaped.
25 str.each(separator=$/) { |substr| block }
Splits str using argument as the record separator ($/ by default), passing each substring to the supplied block.
26 str.each_byte { |fixnum| block }
Passes each byte from str to the block, returning each byte as a decimal representation of the byte.

30 str.gsub(pattern, replacement) [or]
str.gsub(pattern) { |match| block }

Returns a copy of str with all occurrences of pattern replaced with either replacement or the value of the block. The pattern will typically be a Regexp; if it is a String then no regular expression metacharacters will be interpreted (that is, /d/ will match a digit, but 'd' will match a backslash followed by a 'd')
31 str[fixnum] [or] str[fixnum,fixnum] [or] str[range] [or] str[regexp] [or] str[regexp, fixnum] [or] str[other_str]
References str, using the following arguments: one Fixnum, returns a character code at fixnum; two Fixnums, returns a substring starting at an offset (first fixnum) to length (second fixnum); range, returns a substring in the range; regexp returns portion of matched string; regexp with fixnum, returns matched data at fixnum; other_str returns substring matching other_str. A negative Fixnum starts at end of string with -1.
32 str[fixnum] = fixnum [or] str[fixnum] = new_str [or] str[fixnum, fixnum] = new_str [or] str[range] = aString [or] str[regexp] =new_str [or] str[regexp, fixnum] =new_str [or] str[other_str] = new_str ]

34 str.hash
Returns a hash based on the string's length and content.
35 str.hex

36 str.include? other_str [or] str.include? fixnum
Returns true if str contains the given string or character.
37 str.index(substring [, offset]) [or]
str.index(fixnum [, offset]) [or]
str.index(regexp [, offset])

Returns the index of the first occurrence of the given substring, character (fixnum), or pattern (regexp) in str. Returns nil if not found. If the second parameter is present, it specifies the position in the string to begin the search.
38 str.insert(index, other_str)
Inserts other_str before the character at the given index, modifying str. Negative indices count from the end of the string, and insert after the given character. The intent is to insert a string so that it starts at the given index.
39 str.inspect

40 str.intern [or] str.to_sym
Returns the Symbol corresponding to str, creating the symbol if it did not previously exist.
41 str.length

47 str.replace(other_str)
Replaces the contents and taintedness of str with the corresponding values in other_str.
48 str.reverse
Returns a new string with the characters from str in reverse order.
49 str.reverse!
Reverses str in place.
50 str.rindex(substring [, fixnum]) [or]
str.rindex(fixnum [, fixnum]) [or]
str.rindex(regexp [, fixnum])

Returns the index of the last occurrence of the given substring, character (fixnum), or pattern (regexp) in str. Returns nil if not found. If the second parameter is present, it specifies the position in the string to end the search.characters beyond this yiibai won't be considered.
51 str.rjust(integer, padstr=' ')
If integer is greater than the length of str, returns a new String of length integer with str right-justified and padded with padstr; otherwise, returns str.
52 str.rstrip
Returns a copy of str with trailing whitespace removed.
53 str.rstrip!
Removes trailing whitespace from str, returning nil if no change was made.
54 str.scan(pattern) [or]
str.scan(pattern) { |match, ...| block }

Both forms iterate through str, matching the pattern (which may be a Regexp or a String). For each match, a result is generated and either added to the result array or passed to the block. If the pattern contains no groups, each individual result consists of the matched string, $&. If the pattern contains groups, each individual result is itself an array containing one entry per group.
55 str.slice(fixnum) [or] str.slice(fixnum, fixnum) [or]
str.slice(range) [or] str.slice(regexp) [or]
str.slice(regexp, fixnum) [or] str.slice(other_str)
See str[fixnum], etc.
str.slice!(fixnum) [or] str.slice!(fixnum, fixnum) [or] str.slice!(range) [or] str.slice!(regexp) [or] str.slice!(other_str)

Deletes the specified portion from str, and returns the portion deleted. The forms that take a Fixnum will raise an IndexError if the value is out of range; the Range form will raise a RangeError, and the Regexp and String forms will silently ignore the assignment.
56 str.split(pattern=$;, [limit])

Divides str into substrings based on a delimiter, returning an array of these substrings.

If pattern is a String, then its contents are used as the delimiter when splitting str. If pattern is a single space, str is split on whitespace, with leading whitespace and runs of contiguous whitespace characters ignored.

If pattern is a Regexp, str is divided where the pattern matches. Whenever the pattern matches a zero-length string, str is split into individual characters.

If pattern is omitted, the value of $; is used. If $; is nil (which is the default), str is split on whitespace as if ` ` were specified.

If the limit parameter is omitted, trailing null fields are suppressed. If limit is a positive number, at most that number of fields will be returned (if limit is 1, the entire string is returned as the only entry in an array). If negative, there is no limit to the number of fields returned, and trailing null fields are not suppressed.

57 str.squeeze([other_str]*)
Builds a set of characters from the other_str parameter(s) using the procedure described for String#count. Returns a new string where runs of the same character that occur in this set are replaced by a single character. If no arguments are given, all runs of identical characters are replaced by a single character.
58 str.squeeze!([other_str]*)
Squeezes str in place, returning either str, or nil if no changes were made.
59 str.strip
Returns a copy of str with leading and trailing whitespace removed.
60 str.strip!
Removes leading and trailing whitespace from str. Returns nil if str was not altered.
61 str.sub(pattern, replacement) [or]
str.sub(pattern) { |match| block }

Returns a copy of str with the first occurrence of pattern replaced with either replacement or the value of the block. The pattern will typically be a Regexp; if it is a String then no regular expression metacharacters will be interpreted.
62 str.sub!(pattern, replacement) [or]
str.sub!(pattern) { |match| block }

Performs the substitutions of String#sub in place, returning str, or nil if no substitutions were performed.
63 str.succ [or] str.next
Returns the successor to str.
64 str.succ! [or] str.next!
Equivalent to String#succ, but modifies the receiver in place.
65 str.sum(n=16)
Returns a basic n-bit checksum of the characters in str, where n is the optional Fixnum parameter, defaulting to 16. The result is simply the sum of the binary value of each character in str modulo 2n - 1. This is not a particularly good checksum.
66 str.swapcase
Returns a copy of str with uppercase alphabetic characters converted to lowercase and lowercase characters converted to uppercase.
67 str.swapcase!
Equivalent to String#swapcase, but modifies the receiver in place, returning str, or nil if no changes were made.
68 str.to_f
Returns the result of interpreting leading characters in str as a floating-yiibai number. Extraneous characters past the end of a valid number are ignored. If there is not a valid number at the start of str, 0.0 is returned. This method never raises an exception.
69 str.to_i(base=10)
Returns the result of interpreting leading characters in str as an integer base (base 2, 8, 10, or 16). Extraneous characters past the end of a valid number are ignored. If there is not a valid number at the start of str, 0 is returned. This method never raises an exception.
70 str.to_s [or] str.to_str
Returns the receiver.
71 str.tr(from_str, to_str)
Returns a copy of str with the characters in from_str replaced by the corresponding characters in to_str. If to_str is shorter than from_str, it is padded with its last character. Both strings may use the c1.c2 notation to denote ranges of characters, and from_str may start with a ^, which denotes all characters except those listed.
72 str.tr!(from_str, to_str)
Translates str in place, using the same rules as String#tr. Returns str, or nil if no changes were made.
73 str.tr_s(from_str, to_str)
Processes a copy of str as described under String#tr, then removes duplicate characters in regions that were affected by the translation.
74 str.tr_s!(from_str, to_str)
Performs String#tr_s processing on str in place, returning str, or nil if no changes were made.
75 str.unpack(format)
Decodes str (which may contain binary data) according to the format string, returning an array of each value extracted. The format string consists of a sequence of single-character directives, summarized in Table 18. Each directive may be followed by a number, indicating the number of times to repeat with this directive. An asterisk (*) will use up all remaining elements. The directives sSiIlL may each be followed by an underscore (_) to use the underlying platform's native size for the specified type; otherwise, it uses a platform-independent consistent size. Spaces are ignored in the format string.
76 str.upcase
Returns a copy of str with all lowercase letters replaced with their uppercase counterparts. The operation is locale insensitive.only characters a to z are affected.
77 str.upcase!
Changes the contents of str to uppercase, returning nil if no changes are made.
78 str.upto(other_str) { |s| block }
Iterates through successive values, starting at str and ending at other_str inclusive, passing each value in turn to the block. The String#succ method is used to generate each value.
