Combining `find` and `then` seems like the simplest way now if you don't want to use `break`: This is a good point. I always thought map was the action of transforming an element but it does have a implicit reference to an array or a collection. > > ```ruby > emails.find{ pattern.match(it) }&.then{ it[:identifier] } > ``` > > Personally, I would use the following approach is I think it is clearer: > > ```ruby > if match = emails.find{ pattern.match(it) } > match[:identifier] > end > ``` The code aboce doesn't work ^. `match` variable assigned is an email string not the matches found from the email. We implicitly thought that `find` was returning the matches not the item iterated over. ---------------------------------------- Feature #8421: add Enumerable#find_map and Enumerable#find_all_map https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8421#change-107329 * Author: Hanmac (Hans Mackowiak) * Status: Feedback ---------------------------------------- currently if you have an Enumerable and you want to return the return value of #find you need eigther: (o = enum.find(block) && block.call(o)) || nil or enum.inject(nil) {|ret,el| ret || block.call(el)} neigher of them may be better than an directly maked method same for #find_all_map enum.lazy.map(&:block).find_all{|el| el} it may work but it is not so good -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ ______________________________________________ ruby-core mailing list -- ruby-core@ml.ruby-lang.org To unsubscribe send an email to ruby-core-leave@ml.ruby-lang.org ruby-core info -- https://ml.ruby-lang.org/mailman3/postorius/lists/ruby-core.ml.ruby-lang.org/
