如何在Ruby中编写switch语句?


当前回答

它被称为case,它的工作方式与您预期的一样,加上实现测试的==提供的更多有趣的东西。

case 5
  when 5
    puts 'yes'
  else
    puts 'else'
end

现在来点乐趣吧:

case 5 # every selector below would fire (if first)
  when 3..7    # OK, this is nice
  when 3,4,5,6 # also nice
  when Fixnum  # or
  when Integer # or
  when Numeric # or
  when Comparable # (?!) or
  when Object  # (duhh) or
  when Kernel  # (?!) or
  when BasicObject # (enough already)
    ...
end

事实证明,你也可以用case替换任意的if/else链(也就是说,即使测试不涉及公共变量),方法是省去初始case参数,只编写第一个匹配的表达式。

case
  when x.nil?
    ...
  when (x.match /'^fn'/)
    ...
  when (x.include? 'substring')
    ...
  when x.gsub('o', 'z') == 'fnzrq'
    ...
  when Time.now.tuesday?
    ...
end

$age =  5
case $age
when 0 .. 2
   puts "baby"
when 3 .. 6
   puts "little child"
when 7 .. 12
   puts "child"
when 13 .. 18
   puts "youth"
else
   puts "adult"
end

case语句运算符在其他语言中类似于switch。

这是switch的语法。。。C中的情况:

switch (expression)
​{
    case constant1:
      // statements
      break;
    case constant2:
      // statements
      break;
    .
    .
    .
    default:
      // default statements
}

这是case的语法。。。使用Ruby时:

case expression
  when constant1, constant2 #Each when statement can have multiple candidate values, separated by commas.
     # statements 
     next # is like continue in other languages
  when constant3
     # statements 
     exit # exit is like break in other languages
  .
  .
  .
  else
     # statements
end

例如:

x = 10
case x
when 1,2,3
  puts "1, 2, or 3"
  exit
when 10
  puts "10" # it will stop here and execute that line
  exit # then it'll exit
else
  puts "Some other number"
end

可以使用正则表达式,例如查找字符串类型:

case foo
when /^(true|false)$/
   puts "Given string is boolean"
when /^[0-9]+$/ 
   puts "Given string is integer"
when /^[0-9\.]+$/
   puts "Given string is float"
else
   puts "Given string is probably string"
end

Ruby的情况将使用相等操作数==(感谢@JimDeville)。更多信息请访问“Ruby Operators”。这也可以使用@mmdemirbas示例(不带参数)来完成,只有这种方法对于这些类型的情况更干净。

你可以用更自然的方式这样做,

case expression
when condtion1
   function
when condition2
   function
else
   function
end
puts "Recommend me a language to learn?"
input = gets.chomp.downcase.to_s

case input
when 'ruby'
    puts "Learn Ruby"
when 'python'
    puts "Learn Python"
when 'java'
    puts "Learn Java"
when 'php'
    puts "Learn PHP"
else
    "Go to Sleep!"
end
