[ruby-core:45692] [ruby-trunk - Bug #6596] New method for Arrays : Array#index

From: "knu (Akinori MUSHA)" <knu@...>
Date: 2012-06-18 03:25:49 UTC
List: ruby-core #45692
Issue #6596 has been updated by knu (Akinori MUSHA).


=begin
You are changing the subject.  This issue is about Array#indexes, and if you talk about generalization, you should work out a concrete proposal with convincing examples to open another issue.

For that matter, I don't think "indexes" could or should be generalized to Enumerable because Enumerable currently does not have the sense of index.

Lastly, even if you sometimes need to collect indices you can simply use #select with ease:

    indexes = (0...a.size).select { |i| a[i] % 2 == 1 }

    #enumurator = (0...a.size).lazy.select { |i| a[i] % 2 == 1 }

Considering that indices are only useful when you access the originating array with them, the array should have a name and there should be no problem if you can't do this in a method chain.

Bug #6596: New method for Arrays : Array#index

Hello

5 days ago, I submitted a pull request on Github which provides a new method for the array objects which is Array#indexes. I have fist edit the Array#index method in order it to return an array of indexes and not a single index (which is the first occurrence it finds). I found it more logical but a user (trans) tells us that it could break the contract of Array#index so I decided to move it into Array#indexes. Eric (drbrain) tells me I should reasonning why I want to add this method ; it's just a point of view : I don't really understand why Array#index return a single index if the parameter is in the array several times. 

Examples

a = [1, 2, 3, 1]
a.indexes(1)
Return : [0, 3]
a.index(1)
Return : 0
In my opinion, it's not really logical, 1 is in the array twice

Moreover, this pull request doesn't beak anything because we don't edit the Array#index method so programms which were created with previous version of Ruby will work. 

I hope my post is complete. Have a nice day.
