Elixir solution to the FizzBuzz test
# Elixir (v1.0.3) solution to the FizzBuzz test, defined as:
#
# Write a program that prints the numbers from 1 to 100. But for multiples of three print
# "Fizz" instead of the number and for the multiples of five print "Buzz". For numbers
# which are multiples of both three and five print "FizzBuzz".
# Source: http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?FizzBuzzTest
#
# Inspired by programming exercises in the book 'Programming Elixir' by Dave Thomas.
defmodule FizzBuzz do
def transform_range(r), do: Enum.map(r, &transform_value/1)
defp transform_value(n), do: transform(rem(n, 3), rem(n, 5), n)
defp transform(0, 0, _), do: "FizzBuzz"
defp transform(0, _, _), do: "Fizz"
defp transform(_, 0, _), do: "Buzz"
defp transform(_, _, n), do: n
end
# Map a range of numbers (1 - 100) to their "fizzbuzz values."
fizzbuzz_values = FizzBuzz.transform_range 1..100
# Print each value on a new line.
Enum.each fizzbuzz_values, &IO.puts/1
