What about instead of
number = match x:
1 => "one"
2 => "two"
3 => "three"
10 => "ten"
_ => "anything"
number = {
1 => "one"
2 => "two"
3 => "three"
10 => "ten"
}.get(x, "anything")
No magic syntax with blocks starting inside an assignment, just to start with.
This was my initial response until I read the further examples that
cannot be done with a dict.
