Ruby convert string to method name

Try using "send".

methods.each do |method| 
  self.send(method, "abc")
end

All previous solutions with send are fine but it is recommended to use public_send instead (otherwise you can be calling private methods).

Example:

'string'.public_send(:size)
=> 6

Best way is probably:

methods.each { |methodName| send(methodName, 'abc') }

See Object#send
