class RubbyCop::AST::Node
`RubbyCop::AST::Node` is a subclass of `Parser::AST::Node`. It provides access to parent nodes and an object-oriented way to traverse an AST
with the power of `Enumerable`.
It has predicate methods for every node type, like this:
@example
node.send_type? # Equivalent to: `node.type == :send` node.op_asgn_type? # Equivalent to: `node.type == :op_asgn` # Non-word characters (other than a-zA-Z0-9_) in type names are omitted. node.defined_type? # Equivalent to: `node.type == :defined?` # Find the first lvar node under the receiver node. lvar_node = node.each_descendant.find(&:lvar_type?)

@return [Array<Node>] an array of descendant nodes
# File lib/rubbycop/ast/node.rb, line 228 def descendants each_descendant.to_a end
Calls the given block for each ancestor node from parent to root. If no block is given, an `Enumerator` is returned.
@overload each_ancestor
Yield all nodes.
@overload each_ancestor

Calls the given block for each child node. If no block is given, an `Enumerator` is returned.
Note that this is different from `node.children.each { |child| … }` which yields all children including non-node elements.

Calls the given block for the receiver and each descendant node in depth-first order. If no block is given, an `Enumerator` is returned.
This method would be useful when you treat the receiver node as the root of a tree and want to iterate over all nodes in the tree.

Some expressions are evaluated for their value, some for their side effects, and some for both. If we know that expressions are useful only for their return values, and have no side effects, that means we can reorder them, change the number of times they are evaluated, or replace them with other expressions which are equivalent in value. So, is evaluation of this node free of side effects?

Returns the index of the receiver node in its siblings. (Sibling index uses zero based numbering.)

Override `AST::Node#updated` so that `AST::Processor` does not try to mutate our ASTs. Since we keep references from children to parents and not just the other way around, we cannot update an AST
and share identical subtrees. Rather, the entire AST
must be copied any time any part of it is changed.
# File lib/rubbycop/ast/node.rb, line 111 def updated(type = nil, children = nil, properties = {}) properties[:location] ||= @location self.class.new(type || @type, children || @children, properties) end
Some expressions are evaluated for their value, some for their side effects, and some for both If we know that an expression is useful only for its side effects, that means we can transform it in ways which preserve the side effects, but change the return value So, does the return value of this node matter? If we changed it to `(…; nil)`, might that affect anything?
