Method: Enumerable#find_index

Defined in:
enum.c

#find_index(object) ⇒ Integer? #find_index {|element| ... } ⇒ Integer? #find_index ⇒ Object

Returns the index of the first element that meets a specified criterion, or nil if no such element is found.

With argument object given, returns the index of the first element that is == object:

['a', 'b', 'c', 'b'].find_index('b') # => 1

With a block given, calls the block with successive elements; returns the first element for which the block returns a truthy value:

['a', 'b', 'c', 'b'].find_index {|element| element.start_with?('b') } # => 1
{foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2}.find_index {|key, value| value > 1 }         # => 2

With no argument and no block given, returns an Enumerator.

Overloads:

  • #find_index(object) ⇒ Integer?

    Returns:

  • #find_index {|element| ... } ⇒ Integer?

    Yields:

    • (element)

    Returns:
