Removes each element in self for which the block returns a truthy value; returns self:
Example
a = [:foo, 'bar', 2, 'bat'] a.delete_if {|element| element.to_s.start_with?('b') } # => [:foo, 2]
Returns a new Enumerator if no block given:
Example
a = [:foo, 'bar', 2] a.delete_if # => #<Enumerator: [:foo, "bar", 2]:delete_if>
