Get rid of ugly if statements

Question

I have this ugly code:

if ( v > 10 ) size = 6;
if ( v > 22 ) size = 5;
if ( v > 51 ) size = 4;
if ( v > 68 ) size = 3;
if ( v > 117 ) size = 2         


        

Answer 1

The obvious answer is to use Groovy:

def size = { v -> [145,117,68,51,22,10].inject(1) { s, t -> v > t ? s : s + 1 } }

One liners are always better. Returns 7 for the undefined case where v <= 10.
