Enumerable#drop_while

drop_while {|element| ... } → array

drop_while → enumerator

static VALUE
enum_drop_while(VALUE obj)
{
    VALUE result;
    struct MEMO *memo;

    RETURN_ENUMERATOR(obj, 0, 0);
    result = rb_ary_new();
    memo = MEMO_NEW(result, 0, FALSE);
    rb_block_call(obj, id_each, 0, 0, drop_while_i, (VALUE)memo);
    return result;
}

Calls the block with successive elements as long as the block returns a truthy value; returns an array of all elements after that point:

Example

(1..4).drop_while{|i| i < 3 } # => [3, 4]
h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2}
a = h.drop_while{|element| key, value = *element; value < 2 }
a # => [[:baz, 2]]

With no block given, returns an Enumerator.
