How can I select the longest string from a Ruby array?

Question

However above [duplicate suggestion] is for multidimensional array, not targeting the simpler case I am posing here.

For example if I have:

\'one\',\'two

You can also use:

['one','two','three','four','five'].inject { |f, s| f.length > s.length ? f : s }
