如何在Ruby中编写switch语句?


当前回答

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

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”。

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

如果您需要“小于”或“大于”:

case x
when 1..5
  "It's between 1 and 5"
when 6
  "It's 6"
when 7..1.0/0
  "It's equal or greater than 7"
when -1.0/0..0
  "It's equal or less than 0"
end

1.0/0等于Float::INFINITY,因此您可以使用自己喜欢的。

在Ruby 2.6之后,您可以使用Endless Ranges,在Ruby 2.7之后,您还可以使用Beginless Ranges,例如:

case x
when 1..5
  "It's between 1 and 5"
when 6
  "It's 6"
when (7..)
  "It's equal or greater than 7"
when (..0)
  "It's equal or less than 0"
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

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
