accessing index inside map

[Peña, Botp]

Hi All,

How does one access the array index in #map?

eg,

irb(main):002:0> [1,2,3,4,5,6].map! {|x| x*2 }
=> [2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12]

i'd like to double the element values except those loc on the 2nd and 5th
indices eg.

sorry if the answer is too obvious but i cannot find something like
array#each_with_index...

thanks in advance

kind regards -botp

$ ruby -renumerator -e 'p (1..6).enum_foreach_with_index).map{|x,i|[2,5].=
include?(i) ? x : x*2}'
[2, 4, 3, 8, 10, 6]

You can add your own, of course.

module Enumerable
def map_with_index!
each_with_index do |e, ix|
self[ix] = yield e, ix
end
self
end
end

arr = (1..6).to_a
arr.map_with_index! do |e, ix|
[2, 5].include?(ix) ? e : e*2
end

p arr
#=> [2, 4, 3, 8, 10, 6]
