This is a Ruby tree! It shows every object from the Ruby Programming Language in a tree format.
# MatchData.to_a (from ruby core) --- mtch.to_a -> anArray --- Returns the array of matches. 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). all,f1,f2,f3 = * /(.)(.)(\d+)(\d)/.match("THX1138.") all #=> "HX1138" f1 #=> "H" f2 #=> "X" f3 #=> "113"
