|
|
|
Performs various operations on the binary representations of the
Fixnum.

|
Left-shift aNumeric bits |
|
fix
|

|
Right-shift aNumeric
bits (with sign extension) |
|
|
<=>
|
fix <=> aNumeric
-> -1, 0, +1
|
|
Comparison---Returns -1, 0, or +1 depending on whether fix is less
than, equal to, or greater than aNumeric. This is the
basis for the tests in Comparable.
|
|
[ ]
|
fix[ n ] -> 0, 1
|
|
Bit Reference---Returns the nth bit in the binary
representation of fix, where fix[0] is the least significant
bit.
a = 0b11001100101010
30.downto(0) do |n| print a[n] end
|
produces:
0000000000000000011001100101010
|
|
|
id2name
|
fix.id2name -> aString or nil
|
|
Returns the name of the object whose symbol
id is the value of fix. If there is no symbol in the symbol
table with this value, returns nil.
id2name has nothing to do with the Object.id
method. See also
String#intern
on page 371 and class Symbol on page 383.

|
|
size
|
fix.size -> aFixnum
|
|
Returns the number of bytes in the machine representation
of a Fixnum.
|
|
to_f
|
fix.to_f -> aFloat
|
|
Converts fix to a Float.
|
|
to_i
|
fix.to_i -> fix
|
|
Returns fix.
|
|
to_s
|
fix.to_s -> aString
|
|
Returns a string containing the decimal representation of self.
