cnocon / sorting.rb

Sorting method found in Chris Pine's "Learning to Program"

	def sort arr
	rec_sort arr, []
	end

	def rec_sort unsorted, sorted
	if unsorted.length <= 0
	return sorted
	end
	# So if we got here, then it means we still # have work to do.

cnocon / my_sort.rb

Created September 12, 2013 12:47

My recursive sort exercise. I updated it to display the end result slightly neater than was asked for in the book.

	start_array = []
	puts "Enter as many words as you like, pressing Enter after each word has been input. type 'stop' to finish entering words."
	while true
	x = gets.chomp #had to put this within the while loop for code to work, not outside while loop
	if x != "stop"
	start_array.push x
	else
	def sort start_array # This "wraps" recursive_sort.
	recursive_sort start_array, []
	end

cnocon / shuffle.rb

My shuffle exercise for Ch. 10 in "Learning to Program" by Chris Pine

	start_array = []
	puts "Enter as many words as you like, pressing Enter after each word has been input. type 'stop' to finish entering words."
	while true
	x = gets.chomp.downcase #had to put this within the while loop for code to work, not outside while loop
	if x != "stop"
	start_array.push x
	else
	def do_shuffle start_array
	shuffle start_array, []
	end

cnocon / englishnum.rb

Last active December 23, 2015 14:59

The english number problem from Learn to Program by Chris Pine.

	# This program should take a number, like 22, and return the English version of it
	#(in this case, the string 'twenty-two').
	#For now, let’s have it work only on integers from 0 to 99999:

	puts "Provide a number greater than or equal to 0 but less than 100,000"
	num = gets.chomp.to_i
	def englishnum number
	if number < 0 \|\| number > 99999
	puts "Please enter a number greater than or equal to 0 but less than 100,000"

cnocon / birthday_helper.rb

Last active March 8, 2022 00:47

Birthday helper exercise from Chris Pine's book, Learn to Program

	# Write a program to read in names and birth dates from a text file.
	# It should then ask you for a name. You type one in, and it tells you
	# when that person’s next birthday will be (and, for the truly adventur-
	# ous, how old they will be). The input file should look something like this:
	# Christopher Alexander, Oct 4, 1936
	# Christopher Lambert, Mar 29, 1957
	# Christopher Lee, May 27, 1922
	# Christopher Lloyd, Oct 22, 1938
	# Christopher Pine, Aug 3, 1976
	# Christopher Plummer, Dec 13, 1927
