如何在Ruby中编写switch语句?


当前回答

我们可以为多个条件编写switch语句。

例如

x = 22

CASE x
  WHEN 0..14 THEN puts "#{x} is less than 15"    
  WHEN 15 THEN puts "#{x} equals 15" 
  WHEN 15 THEN puts "#{x} equals 15" 
  WHEN 15..20 THEN puts "#{x} is greater than 15" 
  ELSE puts "Not in the range, value #{x} " 
END

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

我更喜欢使用case+then

number = 10

case number
when 1...8 then # ...
when 8...15 then # ...
when 15.. then # ...
end

你可以用更自然的方式这样做,

case expression
when condtion1
   function
when condition2
   function
else
   function
end

在Ruby中,可以用两种不同的方式编写case表达式:

类似于一系列if语句在case旁边指定一个目标,并将每个when子句与目标进行比较。

age = 20
case 
when age >= 21
puts "display something"
when 1 == 0
puts "omg"
else
puts "default condition"
end

or:

case params[:unknown]
when /Something/ then 'Nothing'
when /Something else/ then 'I dont know'
end

在Ruby 2.0中,您还可以在case语句中使用lambdas,如下所示:

is_even = ->(x) { x % 2 == 0 }

case number
when 0 then puts 'zero'
when is_even then puts 'even'
else puts 'odd'
end

您还可以使用Struct和自定义===

Moddable = Struct.new(:n) do
  def ===(numeric)
    numeric % n == 0
  end
end

mod4 = Moddable.new(4)
mod3 = Moddable.new(3)

case number
when mod4 then puts 'multiple of 4'
when mod3 then puts 'multiple of 3'
end

(示例取自“在Ruby 2.0中,procs可以与case语句一起使用吗?”。)

或者,对于完整的类:

class Vehicle
  def ===(another_vehicle)
    self.number_of_wheels == another_vehicle.number_of_wheels
  end
end

four_wheeler = Vehicle.new 4
two_wheeler = Vehicle.new 2

case vehicle
when two_wheeler
  puts 'two wheeler'
when four_wheeler
  puts 'four wheeler'
end
