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

多值时和无值情况：

print "Enter your grade: "
grade = gets.chomp
case grade
when "A", "B"
  puts 'You pretty smart!'
when "C", "D"
  puts 'You pretty dumb!!'
else
  puts "You can't even use a computer!"
end

这里有一个正则表达式解决方案：

print "Enter a string: "
some_string = gets.chomp
case
when some_string.match(/\d/)
  puts 'String has numbers'
when some_string.match(/[a-zA-Z]/)
  puts 'String has letters'
else
  puts 'String has no numbers or letters'
end

这是在Ruby中使用case完成的。另请参阅维基百科上的“Switch语句”。

引用：

case n
when 0
  puts 'You typed zero'
when 1, 9
  puts 'n is a perfect square'
when 2
  puts 'n is a prime number'
  puts 'n is an even number'
when 3, 5, 7
  puts 'n is a prime number'
when 4, 6, 8
  puts 'n is an even number'
else
  puts 'Only single-digit numbers are allowed'
end

另一个例子：

score = 70

result = case score
   when 0..40 then "Fail"
   when 41..60 then "Pass"
   when 61..70 then "Pass with Merit"
   when 71..100 then "Pass with Distinction"
   else "Invalid Score"
end

puts result

在我的Kindle上的《Ruby编程语言》（第一版，O'Reilly）第123页左右，它说when子句后面的then关键字可以用换行符或分号替换（就像if-then-else语法中的那样）。（Ruby 1.8也允许用冒号代替then，但Ruby 1.9中不再允许使用这种语法。）

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

案例什么时候

为Chuck的答案添加更多示例：

使用参数：

case a
when 1
  puts "Single value"
when 2, 3
  puts "One of comma-separated values"
when 4..6
  puts "One of 4, 5, 6"
when 7...9
  puts "One of 7, 8, but not 9"
else
  puts "Any other thing"
end

无参数：

case
when b < 3
  puts "Little than 3"
when b == 3
  puts "Equal to 3"
when (1..10) === b
  puts "Something in closed range of [1..10]"
end

请注意kikito警告的“如何在Ruby中编写switch语句”。

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
