FizzBuzz

In the Elixir cell below create a Module FizzBuzz with a function run/1 which takes in a range.

Enumerate through the integers and return a new list where

• integers divisible by 3 are replaced with fizz
• integers divisible by 5 are replaced with buzz
• integers divisible by 3 and 5 are replaced with fizzbuzz
• integers not matching the above stay the same.

For example,

FizzBuzz.run(1..15)
[1, 2, "fizz", 4, "buzz", "fizz", 7, 8, "fizz", "buzz", 11, "fizz", 13, 14, "fizzbuzz"]

Example Solution

  defmodule FizzBuzz do
    def run(range) do
      Enum.map(range, fn int ->
        cond do
          rem(int, 3) == 0 and rem(int, 5) == 0 -> "fizzbuzz"
          rem(int, 3) == 0 -> "fizz"
          rem(int, 5) == 0 -> "buzz"
          true -> int
        end
      end)
    end
  end

  FizzBuzz.run(1..100)

Enter your solution below.

defmodule FizzBuzz do
  def run(range) do
    Enum.map(range, fn x ->
      cond do
        rem(x, 3) === 0 && rem(x, 5) === 0 -> "fizzbuzz"
        rem(x, 3) === 0 -> "fizz"
        rem(x, 5) === 0 -> "buzz"
        true -> x
      end
    end)
  end
end

FizzBuzz.run(1..100)
