Last update on December 21 2024 10:15:20 (UTC/GMT +8 hours)

Write a Ruby program to check whether 7 appears as either the first or last element in a given array. The array length must be 1 or more.

Ruby Code:

def check_array(nums)
   return (nums[0] == 7 || nums[nums.length-1] == 7)
end
print check_array([1, 2, 7]),"\n"
print check_array([7, 1, 2, 3]),"\n"
print check_array([14, 7, 1, 2, 3])

Output:

true
true
false
