C++ 2 Ruby

Greetings Ruby fans :slight_smile:
From a couple of months I’ve been learning C++ but after I found out
about Ruby… it’s just GREAT!
Right now im at a beginner level, trying to convert some simplier code
to Ruby (it’s easier for me to learn this way)
Can somebody please help me a little? ;>
Ofcourse a working example would be also nice :wink:

BTW sorry for my English…

You might have better luck asking for help with specific sections of
code, rather than asking us to rewrite a whole program. Try doing a
best-guest translation to Ruby on your own, and asking about the parts
you have trouble with.

ok so, here’s the first problem:
def initialize (cen, ile, nn)
@price=cen
@amount=ile
@name=nn
@bought=0
end

def change(x)
      amount--
      bought++
      return x-price //WHATS WRONG HERE?
end

and I get:

gut.rb:13: void value expression
return x-cena
^
gut.rb:13: syntax error, unexpected tIDENTIFIER, expecting kEND
return x-cena

Well, if you want to refer to the @amount, @bought, and @price instance
variables in the change() method you have to use the correct names. Also
Ruby doesn’t have the – and ++ methods.

def change(x)
@amount -= 1
@bought += 1
return x - @price
end

      amount--

end

and I get:

return x-cena

I think a google search for “Instance Variables” should enlighten you :slight_smile:

Jed, you could do this:

class MyClass # my most creative invention of a class name
attr_accessor :price,:amount,:name,:bought # creates ways to get/set
@price,@amount,… from MyClass

def initialize (cen, ile, nn)
@price=cen
@amount=ile
@name=nn
@bought=0
end
def change(x)
@amount-=1
@bought+=1
x-self.price
end
end

cen=500
ile=400
nn=4
obj=MyClass.new(cen,ile,nn)
p obj.change(1) # -499 =1-500

Jed,

if you ask for a variable using ‘gets’, this gives you a String.
So you have to write

mystring=gets
case mystring
when ‘1’ # instead of when 1

Jed,

you don’t have an accessor for the instance variable pricea .
It’s better not to use global variables (starting with $), also, but
instance variables (starting with @):

class Drink
:attr_accessor :pricea, #…
def initialize (cen, ile, nn)
@price=cen
@ammount=ile
@name=nn
@bought=0
end
end

If you define a function ‘pricea()’, then you need to call it as
obj.pricea() also, not as obj.pricea … but in Ruby, people
generally don’t use the first form.

Concerning usage of classes, you might find this enlightening:

http://pine.fm/LearnToProgram/?Chapter=09

(and of course, the whole tutorial, not just chapter 9).

Best regards,

Axel

how can I print a string and a variable in one line ?
i.e.

the output will be:
