[ruby-core:81828] [Ruby trunk Feature#13692] Array#index?

Issue #13692 has been updated by se8 (S辿bastien Durand).


Yes, I think you are right. This probably was a bad idea. An array is not a (numerical) Hash.

So a moderator can close this ticket.

Thanks for your help, have a good continuation. :)

Hello!

We currently have these methods:

~~~
Hash#key(value)
Hash#key?(key)
Array#index(value)
~~~

I was thinking we could add this tiny method:

~~~
Array#index?(index)
~~~

as this is sometimes useful to check if an array index exists.



~~~ ruby
class Array

  def index?(index)
    index.between?(0 - size, size - 1)
  end

end

['a', 'b', 'c'].index?(0) # => true
['a', 'b', 'c'].index?(2) # => true
['a', 'b', 'c'].index?(3) # => false
['a', 'b', 'c'].index?(-1) # => true
['a', 'b', 'c'].index?(-3) # => true
['a', 'b', 'c'].index?(-4) # => false
[false, nil].index?(0) #=> true
[false, nil].index?(1) #=> true
~~~
