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.

n = 0
puts "Enter degrees in Celsius:"
#takes input from user
Celsius = gets.chomp

val1 = Celsius.to_f
#defines the method for conversion
val2 = val1 * 9 / 5 + 32
#provides the answer for converting celsius to fahrenheit
reply ="The temparature is #{val2} degrees Fahrenheit"
puts reply
puts "Goodbye"

Ordinal Challenge

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

n = 0
puts "Enter a number"
#asks user for input
    number = gets.chomp.to_i
#converts number to integer
val1 = number
val2 = number % 10
#handles integers up to 100
val3 = number % 100
#handles digits over 100
    if val2 == 1 && val1 != 11 && val3 != 11
        puts "That is the #{val1}st item"
        #{number}st
    elsif val2 == 2 && val1 != 12 && val3 != 12
        puts "That is the #{val1}nd item"
        #{number}nd
    elsif val2 == 3 && val1 != 13 && val3 != 13
        puts "That is the #{val1}rd item"
        #{number}rd
    else
        puts "That is the #{val1}th item"
        #{number}th
    end
puts "Goodbye"

Foobar

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

n = 0
puts "How many items do you want to see?"
#asks user for input
items = gets.chomp.to_i
#converts number to integer
number = []
#based on user input iterates up to that number
(1..items).each do |n|
    
   if n % 3 == 0 && n % 5 == 0
        number << "Foobar"
    elsif n % 3 == 0
        number << "Foo"
    elsif n % 5 == 0
        number << "Bar"
    else
        number << n
    end
end

puts number
#provides output based on above loop
puts "Goodbye"
