class TrueClass

The class of the singleton object true.

Several of its methods act as operators:

One other method:

true & object → true or false click to toggle source

Returns false if object is false or nil, true otherwise:

true & Object.new # => true true & false # => false true & nil # => false

static VALUE
true_and(VALUE obj, VALUE obj2)
{
    return RBOOL(RTEST(obj2));
}

true === other → true or false click to toggle source

false === other → true or false

nil === other → true or false

Returns true or false.

Like Object#==, if object is an instance of Object (and not an instance of one of its many subclasses).

This method is commonly overridden by those subclasses, to provide meaningful semantics in case statements.

#define case_equal rb_equal

true ^ object → !object click to toggle source

Returns true if object is false or nil, false otherwise:

true ^ Object.new # => false
true ^ false      # => true
true ^ nil        # => true

static VALUE
true_xor(VALUE obj, VALUE obj2)
{
    return rb_obj_not(obj2);
}

inspect

Alias for: to_s

to_s → 'true' click to toggle source

Returns string 'true':

true.to_s # => "true"

VALUE
rb_true_to_s(VALUE obj)
{
    return rb_cTrueClass_to_s;
}

Also aliased as: inspect

true | object → true click to toggle source

Returns true:

true | Object.new # => true
true | false      # => true
true | nil        # => true

Argument object is evaluated. This is different from true with the short-circuit operator, whose operand is evaluated only if necessary:

true | raise # => Raises RuntimeError.
true || raise # => true

static VALUE
true_or(VALUE obj, VALUE obj2)
{
    return Qtrue;
}
