Ruby | Enumerable each_slice() function

The each_slice() of enumerable is an inbuilt method in Ruby iterates for each range of N elements and prints them. If no block is given, then it returns the enumerator.

Syntax: enu.each_slice(N) { |obj| block }

Parameters: The function takes the block which is used to check the condition and N which specifies the number of elements to take in a single slice.

Return Value: It returns the elements in N slices.

Example 1:

# Ruby program for each_slice method in Enumerable

# Initialize
enu = (1.. 5)

# returns slice
enu.each_slice(2){|obj| p obj}

Output:

[1, 2]
[3, 4]
[5]

Example 2:

# Ruby program for each_slice method in Enumerable

# Initialize
enu = (1..10)

# returns each element
enu.each_slice(4)

Output:

Enumerator: 1..10:each_slice(4)
