== Character Selectors

=== Character Selector
|
|
|
|
A _character_ _selector_ is a string argument accepted by certain Ruby methods.
|
|
Each of these instance methods accepts one or more character selectors:
|
|
|
|
- String#tr(selector, replacements): returns a new string.
|
|
- String#tr!(selector, replacements): returns +self+ or +nil+.
|
|
- String#tr_s(selector, replacements): returns a new string.
|
|
- String#tr_s!(selector, replacements): returns +self+ or +nil+.
|
|
- String#count(*selectors): returns the count of the specified characters.
|
|
- String#delete(*selectors): returns a new string.
|
|
- String#delete!(*selectors): returns +self+ or +nil+.
|
|
- String#squeeze(*selectors): returns a new string.
|
|
- String#squeeze!(*selectors): returns +self+ or +nil+.
|
|
|
|
A character selector identifies zero or more characters in +self+
|
|
that are to be operands for the method.
|
|
|
|
In this section, we illustrate using method String#delete(selector),
|
|
which deletes the selected characters.
|
|
|
|
In the simplest case, the characters selected are exactly those
|
|
contained in the selector itself:
|
|
|
|
'abracadabra'.delete('a') # => "brcdbr"
|
|
'abracadabra'.delete('ab') # => "rcdr"
|
|
'abracadabra'.delete('abc') # => "rdr"
|
|
'0123456789'.delete('258') # => "0134679"
|
|
'!@#$%&*()_+'.delete('+&#') # => "!@$%*()_"
|
|
'тест'.delete('т') # => "ес"
|
|
'こんにちは'.delete('に') # => "こんちは"
|
|
|
|
Note that order and repetitions do not matter:
|
|
|
|
'abracadabra'.delete('dcab') # => "rr"
|
|
'abracadabra'.delete('aaaa') # => "brcdbr"
|
|
|
|
In a character selector, these three characters get special treatment:
|
|
|
|
- A leading caret (<tt>'^'</tt>) functions as a "not" operator
|
|
for the characters to its right:
|
|
|
|
'abracadabra'.delete('^bc') # => "bcb"
|
|
'0123456789'.delete('^852') # => "258"
|
|
|
|
- A hyphen (<tt>'-'</tt>) between two other characters
|
|
defines a range of characters instead of a plain string of characters:
|
|
|
|
'abracadabra'.delete('a-d') # => "rr"
|
|
'0123456789'.delete('4-7') # => "012389"
|
|
'!@#$%&*()_+'.delete(' -/') # => "@^_"
|
|
|
|
# May contain more than one range.
|
|
'abracadabra'.delete('a-cq-t') # => "d"
|
|
|
|
# Ranges may be mixed with plain characters.
|
|
'0123456789'.delete('67-950-23') # => "4"
|
|
|
|
# Ranges may be mixed with negations.
|
|
'abracadabra'.delete('^a-c') # => "abacaaba"
|
|
|
|
- A backslash (<tt>'\'</tt>) acts as an escape for a caret, a hyphen,
|
|
or another backslash:
|
|
|
|
'abracadabra^'.delete('\^bc') # => "araadara"
|
|
'abracadabra-'.delete('a\-d') # => "brcbr"
|
|
"hello\r\nworld".delete("\r") # => "hello\nworld"
|
|
"hello\r\nworld".delete("\\r") # => "hello\r\nwold"
|
|
"hello\r\nworld".delete("\\\r") # => "hello\nworld"
|
|
|
|
=== Multiple Character Selectors
|
|
|
|
These instance methods accept multiple character selectors:
|
|
|
|
- String#count(*selectors): returns the count of the specified characters.
|
|
- String#delete(*selectors): returns a new string.
|
|
- String#delete!(*selectors): returns +self+ or +nil+.
|
|
- String#squeeze(*selectors): returns a new string.
|
|
- String#squeeze!(*selectors): returns +self+ or +nil+.
|
|
|
|
In effect, the given selectors are formed into a single selector
|
|
consisting of only those characters common to _all_ of the given selectors.
|
|
|
|
All forms of selectors may be used, including negations, ranges, and escapes.
|
|
|
|
Each of these pairs of method calls is equivalent:
|
|
|
|
s.delete('abcde', 'dcbfg')
|
|
s.delete('bcd')
|
|
|
|
s.delete('^abc', '^def')
|
|
s.delete('^abcdef')
|
|
|
|
s.delete('a-e', 'c-g')
|
|
s.delete('cde')
|
