mtch.to_a â anArray
Instance Public methods
Returns the array of matches.
1 2 | m = /(.)(.)(\d+)(\d)/.match("THX1138.")m.to_a #=> ["HX1138", "H", "X", "113", "8"] |
Because to_a is called when expanding
*variable, there's a useful assignment shortcut
for extracting matched fields. This is slightly slower than accessing the
fields directly (as an intermediate array is generated).
1 2 3 4 5 | all,f1,f2,f3 = *(/(.)(.)(\d+)(\d)/.match("THX1138."))all #=> "HX1138"f1 #=> "H"f2 #=> "X"f3 #=> "113" |
