This file contains ambiguous Unicode characters

This file contains Unicode characters that might be confused with other characters. If you think that this is intentional, you can safely ignore this warning. Use the Escape button to reveal them.

With a block given, calls the block with each +String+ value
returned by successive calls to String#succ;
the first value is +self+, the next is <tt>self.succ</tt>, and so on;
the sequence terminates when value +other_string+ is reached;
returns +self+:
a = []
'a'.upto('f') {|c| a.push(c) }
a # => ["a", "b", "c", "d", "e", "f"]
a = []
'Ж'.upto('П') {|c| a.push(c) }
a # => ["Ж", "З", "И", "Й", "К", "Л", "М", "Н", "О", "П"]
a = []
'よ'.upto('ろ') {|c| a.push(c) }
a # => ["よ", "ら", "り", "る", "れ", "ろ"]
a = []
'a8'.upto('b6') {|c| a.push(c) }
a # => ["a8", "a9", "b0", "b1", "b2", "b3", "b4", "b5", "b6"]
If argument +exclusive+ is given as a truthy object, the last value is omitted:
a = []
'a'.upto('f', true) {|c| a.push(c) }
a # => ["a", "b", "c", "d", "e"]
If +other_string+ would not be reached, does not call the block:
'25'.upto('5') {|s| fail s }
'aa'.upto('a') {|s| fail s }
With no block given, returns a new Enumerator:
'a8'.upto('b6') # => #<Enumerator: "a8":upto("b6")>
