Does Elm have anything between an *if-then-else* flow control and* case* ?
My use case is, I need to parse a string in various ways to decide which
Analysis ADT to assign to the string.
Thus
sconvert : String -> Analysis
sconvert s =
if s=="all" then AllDays
else if s=="unplayed" then Unplayed
else if String.startsWith "onday" s then OnDay (secondBit s)
else if String.contains "totz:" s then Totz (secondBit s)
else Unknown
There are about 30 different branches in my app, and it's convenient to
keep them together.
I can't use a case expression here, so I guess what I'm looking for is
something like F#'s match expression, where you can add conditions using
the when modifier. (code written as if the function existed in Elm
fizzBuzz : Int -> String
fizzBuzz x =
match x with
| i when i % 15 = 0 -> "fizzbuzz"
| i when i % 3 = 0 -> "fizz"
| i when i % 5 = 0 -> "buzz"
| i -> toString(i)
What would be an elegant way to implement the fizzBuzz function in Elm?
