I have a 309 digit integer, I want to iterate through its characters.
Currently I am using:
require 'openssl'
e = 116505013962726356794269846667188147473899121100449069443844506823885859211073843523906823741034558875724969276233769835502344452366515593952571468651971447660633083078837371793388842846199643249996094940742465135064478448126948741186882484457847959126808512823416166517945252986434515406363102297514031583117
and I have:
e.times do |i|
...
end
Which, understandably, yields an error:
undefined method `times' for #<OpenSSL::BN:0x007fec05002140>
I attempted to convert the bignum to an integer:
e.to_i.times do |i|
...
end
Which returned:
bignum too big to convert into `long'
I understand why I am receiving these errors, but I am asking how do I iterate through each character of such a large number?

How is this ?

e.to_s.each_char do |c|

I have some strange thing with downcase and upcase my string in array. Share my code:
I suspect the issue is that you do not have correctly encoded strings.
foo = ['МеНше', '4.5']
foo.map(&:downcase) #=> ["менше", "4.5"]
foo.each { |el| puts el.downcase }
#>> менше
#>> 4.5
foo.first.encoding #=> #<Encoding:UTF-8>
The first step would be to check your encoding. If it's not UTF-8, you can coerce a downcase by doing:
foo.each { |el| puts el.mb_chars.downcase.to_s }
#>> менше
#>> 4.5
This solution requires Rails, so you'd need to do
require 'active_support/core_ext'
If you're using plain old ruby.

Below there is a code that works:
class LikeAnArray < Array
end
If I run:
$ p object = LikeAnArray.new
It returns:
$ #=> []
If I run:
$ p object.class
It returns:
$ #=> LikeAnArray
How can I achieve this functionality without making my class be a sub class of Array?
With class LikeArray < Array; end you can achieve the behaviour you are looking for. What are you trying to do?

I have array of arrays looking something like this :
arr = [[f,f,f,f,f], [f,f,t,f,f], [f,t,f,t,f]]
and am I outputing it formatted on the console like this:
arr.each {|a| puts a.join.gsub('t','<b></b>').gsub('f','<i></i>')}
and it generates something like this:
<i></i><i></i><i></i><i></i><i></i>
<i></i><i></i><b></b><i></i><i></i>
<i></i><b></b><i></i><b></b><i></i>
but it is only in the output. I am wondering how I can assign it to a string? With the new lines and everything, exactly the way it looks,
a= [["f","f","f","f","f"], ["f","f","t","f","f"], ["f","t","f","t","f"]].map do |arr|
arr.join.gsub(/[ft]/) do |x|
if x =~ /f/
'<i></i>'
elsif x =~ /t/
'<b></b>'
end
end
end.join("\n")
puts a
# >> <i></i><i></i><i></i><i></i><i></i>
# >> <i></i><i></i><b></b><i></i><i></i>
# >> <i></i><b></b><i></i><b></b><i></i>

Here is my code:
class String
def frequency
chars.each_with_object(Hash.new(0)) do |char, h|
h["#{char.upcase}:"] += 1 if char[/[[:alpha:]]/]
end
end
end
I've tried breaking it down in smaller bit's of code, such as using a .times do loop but I couldn't figure it out
for example:
str = "\*"
h["A:"] = count('a').times do
str
end
Are you trying to do something like:
counts = 'aassssvvvvv'.frequency
counts.each{|key,count| puts key + '*'*count}
# A:**
# S:****
# V:*****
Or if you want to change the key you can do:
counts.each{|key,amount| counts[key] = '*'*amount}

for example:
input: 15
output:
15 = 1+2+3+4+5
15 = 4+5+6
15 = 7+8
input: 4
output: cannot split
Here's one way:
def natural_numerals(value)
results = []
(1..value-1).each {|i| (i..value-1).each {|j| results << (i..j).to_a.join("+") if (i+j)*(j-i+1)/2 == value}}
if results.empty? then nil else results end
end
output1 = natural_numerals(15)
output2 = natural_numerals(4)
puts output1.inspect #=> ["1+2+3+4+5", "4+5+6", "7+8"]
puts output2.inspect #=> nil
