// $[1], $[2], $[3] (where $ is the match object) will be set appropriately. The value returned by the function will be
// substituted for the match on each call.
//
// The result inherits any tainting in the original string or any supplied replacement string.
//
// "hello".gsub /[aeiou]/, '*' #=> "h*ll*"
// "hello".gsub /[aeiou]/, '<$1>' #=> "h<e>ll<o>"
