upto(p1, p2 = v2)
public
Iterates through successive values, starting at str and ending at other_str inclusive, passing each value in turn to the block. The String#succ method is used to generate each value. If optional second argument exclusive is omitted or is false, the last value will be included; otherwise it will be excluded.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
"a8".upto("b6") {|s| print s, ' ' } for s in "a8".."b6" print s, ' ' end
produces:
a8 a9 b0 b1 b2 b3 b4 b5 b6 a8 a9 b0 b1 b2 b3 b4 b5 b6
If str and other_str contains only ascii numeric characters, both are recognized as decimal numbers. In addition, the width of string (e.g. leading zeros) is handled appropriately.
"9".upto("11").to_a #=> ["9", "10", "11"] "25".upto("5").to_a #=> [] "07".upto("11").to_a #=> ["07", "08", "09", "10", "11"]
