Determining whether one array contains the contents of another array in ruby

Question

In ruby, how do I test that one array not only has the elements of another array, but contain them in that particular order?

correct_combination = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5         


        

Answer 1

You can use each_cons method:

arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
[1, 5, 8, 2, 3, 4, 5].each_cons(arr.size).include? arr

In this case it will work for any elements.
