///// DEBUG 01 ///// -------------------- | |
list = {'yvr' => 'Vancouver', 'yba' => 'Banff', 'yyz' => 'Toronto', 'yxx' => 'Abbotsford', 'ybw' => 'Calgary'} | |
# Why is it returning nil instead of first element of the list above | |
p list['yvr'] | |

numbers.each do |num| | |
sum += num.to_f | |
end | |

end | |
## TEST HELPER METHOD | |
def test_average(array = nil) | |
return nil if array == nil | |
print "avg of #{array.inspect}:" | |
result = average(array) | |
p result | |
end | |
## TEST CODE | |
test_average([4,5,6]) # => 5 | |
test_average([15,5,10]) # => 10 | |
# Should treat string like number | |
test_average([15,'5',10]) # => 10 | |
# Should show decimal value | |
test_average([10, 5]) # => 7.5 instead of just 7 | |
# Watch out! Even tests can have bugs! | |
test_average([9, 5, 7]) | |
# Empty set should return nil, not throw an error | |
test_average([]) # => nil | |
# Non-existent set should return nil | |
test_average() # => nil | |
# BONUS: Should ignore nils in the set | |
test_average([9,6,nil,3]) # => 6 | |
///// DEBUG 03 ///// ---------------------- | |
def sum(list) | |
sum = 0 | |
list.each do |ele| | |
sum += ele | |

end | |

# 1. The following should return 165 instead of an error | |
puts sum(list1) | |
# 2. How would you refactor it using an enumerable method other than each? Examples of enumerables: map, select, inject, reject, detect. | |
p list1.inject(0) {|sum, i| sum + i } | |
p list1.inject(0, :+) | |
p list1.inject([]) { |acc, item| acc << item if item % 2 == 0; acc } | |

def char_count(list) | |
fruit = Hash.new(0) | |
list.each do |word| | |
word.split('').each { |letter| fruit[letter] += 1 } | |
end | |
fruit | |
end | |
# Why the long face(error)? | |
# 1. This should return count of each letter in the list | |
puts char_count(['apples', 'oranges', 'hipsters', 'are', 'same']) | |
# 2. What are the improvements you can do to above code? | |
