Method: Enumerable#drop_while

Defined in:
enum.c

#drop_while {|element| ... } ⇒ Array #drop_while ⇒ Object

Calls the block with successive elements as long as the block returns a truthy value; returns an array of all elements after that point:

(1..4).drop_while{|i| i < 3 } # => [3, 4]
h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2}
a = h.drop_while{|element| key, value = *element; value < 2 }
a # => [[:baz, 2]]

With no block given, returns an Enumerator.

Overloads:

  • #drop_while {|element| ... } ⇒ Array

    Yields:

    • (element)

    Returns:
