class TrueClass
The class of the singleton object true.
Several of its methods act as operators:
One other method:
Public Instance Methods
Source
static VALUE
true_and(VALUE obj, VALUE obj2)
{
return RBOOL(RTEST(obj2));
}
Returns false if object is false or nil, true otherwise:
true & Object.new # => true true & false # => false true & nil # => false
Source
#define case_equal rb_equal
Returns true or false.
Like Object#==, if other is an instance of Object (and not an instance of one of its many subclasses).
This method is commonly overridden by those subclasses, to provide meaningful semantics in case statements.
Source
static VALUE
true_xor(VALUE obj, VALUE obj2)
{
return rb_obj_not(obj2);
}
Returns true if object is false or nil, false otherwise:
true ^ Object.new # => false true ^ false # => true true ^ nil # => true
Source
static VALUE
true_or(VALUE obj, VALUE obj2)
{
return Qtrue;
}
Returns true:
true | Object.new # => true true | false # => true true | nil # => true
Argument object is evaluated. This is different from true with the short-circuit operator, whose operand is evaluated only if necessary:
true | raise # => Raises RuntimeError. true || raise # => true
