How to turn a string into CamelCase in Ruby
Here’s a function to turn any given string into a CamelCase “WikiWord” in Ruby:
def wikify(phrase)
phrase.gsub!(/^[a-z]|s+[a-z]/) { |a| a.upcase }
phrase.gsub!(/s/, '')
return phrase
end
Voila. This turns “my dog has fleas” into “MyDogHasFleas”.
Note: I’m sure there’s a way to fix this so that it’s just one regular expression? Feel free to chime in!
