Code Snippets


Temperature Conversion

This Ruby program will prompt the user for a temperature in degrees Celsius and let the user know what the corresponding temperature is in Fahrenheit.

def celsius_fahrenheit(c)
    c * 1.8 + 32
    
end 

puts "Enter degrees in Celsius:"
c = gets.to_f

puts "The temperature is #{celsius_fahrenheit(c)} degrees Farhenheit today"

puts "Enter a number"

i = gets.chomp.to_i

def ordinal(n)

    right_digit = n % 10
   case
   
    when right_digit == 1 && n != 11 then return "st"
    when right_digit == 2 && n != 12 then return "nd"
    when right_digit == 3 && n != 13 then return "rd"
    
    else 
        return "th"
         
    end
end

puts "that's the #{i}#{ordinal(i)} item!"

Ordinal Challenge

This Ruby program will convert a plain mumber to the ordinal of the numbner. So for example, if the user enters 2, it will display 2nd, if the user enters 3, it will display 3rd, etc.


Foobar

This Ruby program is an adaptation of a classic technical interview problem which displays sequences of the Foobar pattern.

def foo_bar n
    n.times do |i|
        i += 1
        num = ""
        num << "Foo" if i % 3 == 0
        num << "Bar" if i % 5 == 0 
        num = i.to_s if num == ""
        puts num 
    end
end

puts "How many items do you want to see?"
foo_bar gets.to_i
