trying to write two methods in the same file to check number arguments. The first method passes all tests fine but the second keeps giving me the NoMethodError even though the method by its self passes.
heres my code:
def unsafe?(speed)
if speed < 40
return true
elsif speed > 60
return true
else
return false
end
def not_safe?(speed)
speed < 40 || speed > 60 ? true : false
end
end
You're missing an end
keyword to if
. This is what it looks like if you indent the code properly:
def unsafe?(speed)
if speed < 40
return true
elsif speed > 60
return true
else
return false
end
def not_safe?(speed)
speed < 40 || speed > 60 ? true : false
end
end
As you can see the code will never get to def not_safe?(speed)
as the method has already returned. Ruby allows nested method definitions yet their actual use is universally discouraged .
This is what it should look like:
def unsafe?(speed)
if speed < 40
return true
elsif speed > 60
return true
else
return false
end
end
def not_safe?(speed)
speed < 40 || speed > 60 ? true : false
end
But this is really is a very overcomplicated way of doing something that can be handled with:
def unsafe?(speed)
!speed.between(40,60)
end
The whole idea of using the ternary operator is just plain strange as speed < 40 || speed > 60
speed < 40 || speed > 60
evaluates to true or false anyways.
