Ruby and Railsby example

Ruby is simple in appearance,but is very complex inside,just like our human body.

- Yukihiro "matz" Matsumoto,creator of Ruby

Example 0:Hash / Dictionary

// Using C#

using System;using System.Collections;

...

Hashtable openWith = new Hashtable();

openWith.Add("txt", "notepad.exe"); openWith.Add("bmp", "paint.exe"); openWith.Add("dib", "paint.exe"); openWith.Add("rtf", "wordpad.exe");

# Using Ruby

openWith = { "txt" => "notepad.exe", "bmp" => "paint.exe", "dib" => "paint.exe", "rtf" => "wordpad.exe" }

# Using Ruby 1.9

openWith = { txt: "notepad.exe", bmp: "paint.exe", dib: "paint.exe", rtf: "wordpad.exe" }

Example 1:Hello World

puts "Hello World!"

Example 2:Create a Binary Tree

class Node attr_accessor :value

def initialize(value = nil) @value = value end

attr_reader :left, :right def left=(node); @left = create_node(node); end def right=(node); @right = create_node(node); end

private def create_node(node) node.instance_of? Node ? node : Node.new(node) endend

Example 2.1:Traverse the Binary Tree

def traverse(node) visited_list = [] inorder(node, visited) puts visited.join(",")end

def inorder(node, visited) inorder(node.left, visited) unless node.left.nil? visited << node.value inorder(node.right, visited) unless node.right.nil?end

def traverse(node) visited_list = [] inorder node, visited puts visited.join ","end

def inorder(node, visited) inorder node.left, visited unless node.left.nil? visited << node.value inorder node.right, visited unless node.right.nil?end

Example 3:Create a Person →

Student →College Student

class hierarchy

class Person attr_accessor :nameend

class Student < Person attr_accessor :schoolend

class CollegeStudent < Student attr_accessor :courseend

x = CollegeStudent.newx.name = "John Doe"x.school = "ABC University"x.course = "Computer Science"

Example 4:Call a method in a

"primitive"

nil.methods

true.object_id

1.upto(10) do |x| puts xend

Example 5:Find the sum of the

squares of all numbers under 10,000 divisible

by 3 and/or 5

x = 1sum = 0while x < 10000 do if x % 3 == 0 or x % 5 == 0 sum += x * x endendputs sum

puts (1..10000). select { |x| x % 3 == 0 or x % 5 == 0}. map {|x| x * x }. reduce(:+)

Example 6:Find all employees

older than 30 and sort by last name

oldies = employees.select { |e| e.age > 30 }. sort { |e1, e2| e1.last_name <=> e2.last_name }

Example 7:Assign a method to a

variable

hello = Proc.new { |string| puts "Hello #{string}" }

hello.call "Alice"

Example 8:Add a "plus" method to

all numbers

class Numeric def plus(value) self.+(value) endend

Example 9:Define different

behavior for different instances

alice = Person.newbob = Person.new

alice.instance_eval do def hello puts "Hello" endend

def bob.hello puts "Howdy!"end

Example 10:Make Duck and

Person swim

module Swimmer def swim puts "This #{self.class} is swimming" endend

class Duck include Swimmerend

class Person include Swimmerend

Duck.new.swimStudent.new.swim

Example 0:Make a Twitter Clone

$ rails new twitclone$ cd twitclone$ rails generate scaffold tweet message:string$ rake db:migrate $ rails server

$ rails new twitclone$ cd twitclone$ rails generate scaffold tweet message:string$ rake db:migrate $ rails server
