Class: Enumerable
sum(identity = nil, &block)
public
Calculates a sum from the elements.
payments.sum { |p| p.price * p.tax_rate } payments.sum(&:price)
The latter is a shortcut for:
payments.inject(0) { |sum, p| sum + p.price }
It can also calculate the sum without the use of a block.
[5, 15, 10].sum # => 30 ['foo', 'bar'].sum('') # => "foobar" [[1, 2], [3, 1, 5]].sum([]) # => [1, 2, 3, 1, 5]
The default sum of an empty list is zero. You can override this default:
[].sum(Payment.new(0)) { |i| i.amount } # => Payment.new(0)
