Ruby each_with_index offset

Question

Can I define the offset of the index in the each_with_index loop iterator? My straight forward attempt failed:

some_array.each_with_index{|item, index = 1| s         


        

Answer 1

Ariel is right. This is the best way to handle this, and it's not that bad

ary.each_with_index do |a, i|
  puts i + 1
  #other code
end

That is perfectly acceptable, and better than most of the solutions I've seen for this. I always thought this was what #inject was for...oh well.
