Issue #9116 has been updated by shevegen (markus heiler). I am still not sure how it differs from #split(). ---------------------------------------- Feature #9116: String#rsplit missing https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/9116#change-43010 Author: artagnon (Ramkumar Ramachandra) Status: Open Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: lib Target version: There's nothing corresponding to Python's rsplit(). A quick glance at rb_str_split_m() tells me that it should be pretty trivial to implement. Is there any specific reason it hasn't already been done? -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
