I'm new to the ruby world and I'm currently struggling with the following code:
class Item
attr_accessor :x, :y
def initialize(x,y)
@x, @y = x, y
end
def to_s
"(#@x,#@y)"
end
end
a = Item.new(1,nil)
b = Item.new(2,nil)
c = Item.new(3,nil)
d = Item.new(4,nil)
e = Item.new(5,12)
f = Item.new(6,5)
g = Item.new(12,6)
ar = [ a, b, c, d, e, f,g]
ar.sort! {|i1,i2| (i2.y?i2.y:i2.x) <=> (i1.y?i1.y:i1.x)}
puts array.ar("\n")
This raises the following error in the sort line:
undefined method `x' for :i2:Symbol (NoMethodError)
Clearly, x is a method of instances of the Item class, so my guess is that i1 and i2 are not instances of the Item class - but if they are not, then what are they?
(Btw, what I'm trying to do here is to sort the array of objects according to attribute y, and if y is nil, according to attribute x instead).
Thanks for any help to a ruby-newby
You need some whitespaces. Any token starting with a :
is a symbol in Ruby.
ar.sort! {|i1,i2| (i2.y ? i2.y : i2.x) <=> (i1.y ? i1.y : i1.x)}
And the last line, puts ar
is ok.
