我是 ruby 新手,正在研究一个需要通过 Rspec 的字典项目,但在实现所需的“查找”方法时遇到了一些麻烦。
规格如下:
require 'dictionary'
describe Dictionary do
before do
@d = Dictionary.new
end
it 'is empty when created' do
@d.entries.should == {}
end
it 'can add whole entries with keyword and definition' do
@d.add('fish' => 'aquatic animal')
@d.entries.should == {'fish' => 'aquatic animal'}
@d.keywords.should == ['fish']
end
it 'add keywords (without definition)' do
@d.add('fish')
@d.entries.should == {'fish' => nil}
@d.keywords.should == ['fish']
end
it 'can check whether a given keyword exists' do
@d.include?('fish').should be_false
end
it "doesn't cheat when checking whether a given keyword exists" do
@d.include?('fish').should be_false # if the method is empty, this test passes with nil returned
@d.add('fish')
@d.include?('fish').should be_true # confirms that it actually checks
@d.include?('bird').should be_false # confirms not always returning true after add
end
it "doesn't include a prefix that wasn't added as a word in and of itself" do
@d.add('fish')
@d.include?('fi').should be_false
end
it "doesn't find a word in empty dictionary" do
@d.find('fi').should be_empty # {}
end
it 'finds nothing if the prefix matches nothing' do
@d.add('fiend')
@d.add('great')
@d.find('nothing').should be_empty
end
it "finds an entry" do
@d.add('fish' => 'aquatic animal')
@d.find('fish').should == {'fish' => 'aquatic animal'}
end
it 'finds multiple matches from a prefix and returns the entire entry (keyword + definition)' do
@d.add('fish' => 'aquatic animal')
@d.add('fiend' => 'wicked person')
@d.add('great' => 'remarkable')
@d.find('fi').should == {'fish' => 'aquatic animal', 'fiend' => 'wicked person'}
end
it 'lists keywords alphabetically' do
@d.add('zebra' => 'African land animal with stripes')
@d.add('fish' => 'aquatic animal')
@d.add('apple' => 'fruit')
@d.keywords.should == %w(apple fish zebra)
end
it 'can produce printable output like so: [keyword] "definition"' do
@d.add('zebra' => 'African land animal with stripes')
@d.add('fish' => 'aquatic animal')
@d.add('apple' => 'fruit')
@d.printable.should == %Q{[apple] "fruit"\n[fish] "aquatic animal"\n[zebra] "African land animal with stripes"}
end
end
到目前为止我写的是
class Dictionary < Hash
def add(definition)
definition = {definition => nil} unless definition.kind_of?(Hash)
merge!(definition)
end
alias_method :entries, :dup
def keywords
keys.sort
end
def find(definition)
return{}
end
end
我真的不知道如何进一步进行。我的 find 方法通过了“在空字典中找不到单词”和“如果前缀不匹配任何内容”部分的测试,尽管我不太确定为什么。我目前被困在
it "finds an entry" do
@d.add('fish' => 'aquatic animal')
@d.find('fish').should == {'fish' => 'aquatic animal'}
end
我大约 5 天前才开始学习 ruby,所以还有很多关键字和语法我不知道如何使用。如果有人能告诉我我做错了什么,并且如果有更好的方法来实现这个方法,那将不胜感激。提前致谢!
