All the expressions described ;TI"here return a value.;T@ o; ;[I"TFor the tests in these control expressions, +nil+ and +false+ are false-values ;TI"Tand +true+ and any other object are true-values. In this document "true" will ;TI";mean "true-value" and "false" will mean "false-value".;T@ S; ; i; I"+if+ Expression;T@ o; ;[I"RThe simplest +if+ expression has two parts, a "test" expression and a "then" ;TI"Oexpression. If the "test" expression evaluates to a true then the "then" ;TI"expression is evaluated.;T@ o; ;[I"#Here is a simple if statement:;T@ o:RDoc::Markup::Verbatim;[I"if true then ;TI"0 puts "the test resulted in a true-value" ;TI" end ;T: @format0o; ;[I"9This will print "the test resulted in a true-value".;T@ o; ;[I"The +then+ is optional:;T@ o;;[I" if true ;TI"0 puts "the test resulted in a true-value" ;TI" end ;T;0o; ;[I"TThis document will omit the optional +then+ for all expressions as that is the ;TI"most common usage of +if+.;T@ o; ;[I"SYou may also add an +else+ expression. If the test does not evaluate to true ;TI",the +else+ expression will be executed:;T@ o;;[ I"if false ;TI"0 puts "the test resulted in a true-value" ;TI" else ;TI"1 puts "the test resulted in a false-value" ;TI" end ;T;0o; ;[I":This will print "the test resulted in a false-value".;T@ o; ;[I"NYou may add an arbitrary number of extra tests to an if expression using ;TI"N+elsif+. An +elsif+ executes when all tests above the +elsif+ are false.;T@ o;;[I" a = 1 ;TI" ;TI"if a == 0 ;TI" puts "a is zero" ;TI"elsif a == 1 ;TI" puts "a is one" ;TI" else ;TI"$ puts "a is some other value" ;TI" end ;T;0o; ;[I"RThis will print "a is one" as <code>1</code> is not equal to <code>0</code>. ;TI"ISince +else+ is only executed when there are no matching conditions.;T@ o; ;[I"SOnce a condition matches, either the +if+ condition or any +elsif+ condition, ;TI"Lthe +if+ expression is complete and no further tests will be performed.;T@ o; ;[I"DLike an +if+, an +elsif+ condition may be followed by a +then+.;T@ o; ;[I"0In this example only "a is one" is printed:;T@ o;;[I" a = 1 ;TI" ;TI"if a == 0 ;TI" puts "a is zero" ;TI"elsif a == 1 ;TI" puts "a is one" ;TI"elsif a >= 1 ;TI"0 puts "a is greater than or equal to one" ;TI" else ;TI"$ puts "a is some other value" ;TI" end ;T;0o; ;[I"SThe tests for +if+ and +elsif+ may have side-effects. The most common use of ;TI";side-effect is to cache a value into a local variable:;T@ o;;[I"if a = object.some_value ;TI" # do something to a ;TI" end ;T;0o; ;[I"NThe result value of an +if+ expression is the last value executed in the ;TI"expression.;T@ S; ; i; I"Ternary if;T@ o; ;[I"KYou may also write a if-then-else expression using <code>?</code> and ;TI"&<code>:</code>. This ternary if:;T@ o;;[I":input_type = gets =~ /hello/i ? "greeting" : "other" ;T;0o; ;[I")Is the same as this +if+ expression:;T@ o;;[ I"input_type = ;TI" if gets =~ /hello/i ;TI" "greeting" ;TI" else ;TI" "other" ;TI" end ;T;0o; ;[ I"SWhile the ternary if is much shorter to write than the more verbose form, for ;TI"Oreadability it is recommended that the ternary if is only used for simple ;TI"Nconditionals. Also, avoid using multiple ternary conditions in the same ;TI")expression as this can be confusing.;T@ S; ; i; I"+unless+ Expression;T@ o; ;[I"SThe +unless+ expression is the opposite of the +if+ expression. If the value ;TI"1is false, the "then" expression is executed:;T@ o;;[I"unless true ;TI") puts "the value is a false-value" ;TI" end ;T;0o; ;[I"6This prints nothing as true is not a false-value.;T@ o; ;[I"AYou may use an optional +then+ with +unless+ just like +if+.;T@ o; ;[I"<Note that the above +unless+ expression is the same as:;T@ o;;[I"if not true ;TI") puts "the value is a false-value" ;TI" end ;T;0o; ;[I"KLike an +if+ expression you may use an +else+ condition with +unless+:;T@ o;;[ I"unless true ;TI"! puts "the value is false" ;TI" else ;TI" puts "the value is true" ;TI" end ;T;0o; ;[I"?This prints "the value is true" from the +else+ condition.;T@ o; ;[I"9You may not use +elsif+ with an +unless+ expression.;T@ o; ;[I"RThe result value of an +unless+ expression is the last value executed in the ;TI"expression.;T@ S; ; i; I"Modifier +if+ and +unless+;T@ o; ;[I"Q+if+ and +unless+ can also be used to modify an expression. When used as a ;TI"Rmodifier the left-hand side is the "then" expression and the right-hand side ;TI"is the "test" expression:;T@ o;;[ I" a = 0 ;TI" ;TI"a += 1 if a.zero? ;TI" ;TI" p a ;T;0o; ;[I"This will print 1.;T@ o;;[ I" a = 0 ;TI" ;TI"a += 1 unless a.zero? ;TI" ;TI" p a ;T;0o; ;[I"This will print 0.;T@ o; ;[I"RWhile the modifier and standard versions have both a "test" expression and a ;TI"P"then" expression, they are not exact transformations of each other due to ;TI"@parse order. Here is an example that shows the difference:;T@ o;;[I"p a if a = 0.zero? ;T;0o; ;[I"HThis raises the NameError "undefined local variable or method `a'".;T@ o; ;[I"RWhen ruby parses this expression it first encounters +a+ as a method call in ;TI"Sthe "then" expression, then later it sees the assignment to +a+ in the "test" ;TI"2expression and marks +a+ as a local variable.;T@ o; ;[I"OWhen running this line it first executes the "test" expression, <code>a = ;TI"0.zero?</code>.;T@ o; ;[I"QSince the test is true it executes the "then" expression, <code>p a</code>. ;TI"QSince the +a+ in the body was recorded as a method which does not exist the ;TI"NameError is raised.;T@ o; ;[I"#The same is true for +unless+.;T@ S; ; i; I"+case+ Expression;T@ o; ;[I"3The +case+ expression can be used in two ways.;T@ o; ;[ I"QThe most common way is to compare an object against multiple patterns. The ;TI"Mpatterns are matched using the +===+ method which is aliased to +==+ on ;TI"OObject. Other classes must override it to give meaningful behavior. See ;TI",Module#=== and Regexp#=== for examples.;T@ o; ;[I"NHere is an example of using +case+ to compare a String against a pattern:;T@ o;;[ I"case "12345" ;TI"when /^1/ ;TI") puts "the string starts with one" ;TI" else ;TI"7 puts "I don't know what the string starts with" ;TI" end ;T;0o; ;[ I"PHere the string <code>"12345"</code> is compared with <code>/^1/</code> by ;TI"Pcalling <code>/^1/ === "12345"</code> which returns +true+. Like the +if+ ;TI"Uexpression, the first +when+ that matches is executed and all other matches are ;TI" ignored.;T@ o; ;[I"5If no matches are found, the +else+ is executed.;T@ o; ;[I"OThe +else+ and +then+ are optional, this +case+ expression gives the same ;TI"result as the one above:;T@ o;;[ I"case "12345" ;TI"when /^1/ ;TI") puts "the string starts with one" ;TI" end ;T;0o; ;[I":You may place multiple conditions on the same +when+:;T@ o;;[ I"case "2" ;TI"when /^1/, "2" ;TI"3 puts "the string starts with one or is '2'" ;TI" end ;T;0o; ;[I"NRuby will try each condition in turn, so first <code>/^1/ === "2"</code> ;TI"Sreturns +false+, then <code>"2" === "2"</code> returns +true+, so "the string ;TI"+starts with one or is '2'" is printed.;T@ o; ;[I"RYou may use +then+ after the +when+ condition.

The following loop is equivalent to the loop ;TI" above:;T@ o;;[ I"while a < 10 ;TI" p a ;TI" a += 1 ;TI" end ;T;0o; ;[I"NThe result of a +while+ loop is +nil+ unless +break+ is used to supply a ;TI" value.;T@ S; ; i; I"+until+ Loop;T@ o; ;[I":The +until+ loop executes while a condition is false:;T@ o;;[ I" a = 0 ;TI" ;TI"until a > 10 do ;TI" p a ;TI" a += 1 ;TI" end ;TI" ;TI" p a ;T;0o; ;[I"TThis prints the numbers 0 through 11.
