Daily Challenge #174 - Soccer League Table

#challenge

Implement the class LeagueTable.

This class is used to store results of soccer matches played, as well as return and display various stats about each team.

Match results will always be passed through the push method as a string in the format "Home Team 0 - 0 Away Team".

When a new match ends and the scores are tallied, points are awarded to teams as follows:

 3 points for a win
1 point for a draw
0 points for a loss

The class must have the following methods:

 push(match_string)             # insert a new match record

get_points(team_name)          # Returns the no. of points a team has, 0 by default

get_goals_for(team_name)       # Returns the no. of goals a team has scored, 0 by default

get_goals_against(team_name)   # Returns the no. of goals a team has conceded (had scored against them), 0 by default

get_goal_difference(team_name) # Return the no. of goals a team has scored minus the no. of goals a team has conceded, 0 by default

get_wins(team_name)            # Return the no. of wins a team has, 0 by default

get_draws(team_name)           # Return the no. of draws a team has, 0 by default

get_losses(team_name)          # Return the no. of losses a team has, 0 by default

Example 

lt = LeagueTable.new

lt.push("Man Utd 3 - 0 Liverpool")

puts lt.get_goals_for("Man Utd") => 3
puts lt.get_points("Man Utd") => 3
puts lt.get_points("Liverpool") => 0
puts lt.get_goal_difference("Liverpool") => -3

lt.push("Liverpool 1 - 1 Man Utd")

puts lt.get_goals_for("Man Utd") => 4
puts lt.get_points("Man Utd") => 4
puts lt.get_points("Liverpool") => 1
puts lt.get_goals_against("Man Utd") => 1

puts lt.get_points("Tottenham") => 0

Test

lt.push("Man Utd 2 - 1 Liverpool")
lt.push("Liverpool 3 - 0 Man Utd")

Good luck!

Well, I attempted this in Haskell. I took the liberty of making each function return a Maybe value, being Nothing when the team isn't in the table instead of defaulting to 0. It uses a state monad to make storing and "mutating" data feasible. I decided to implement my own state monad here, but there are (better) implementations on stackage.

module SoccerLeague ( Game, Name, Team, League
                    , empty, push, points
                    , goalsFor, goalsAgainst, goalDifference
                    , wins, draws, losses
                    , State, runState
                    ) where

                 , t_draws :: Int

type Game = ((Name, Int), (Name, Int))

  let t' = Team { t_name = name
                , t_goalsFor = t_goalsFor t + for
                , t_goalsAgainst = t_goalsAgainst t + against
                , t_wins = t_wins t + bool 0 1 (for > against)
                , t_draws = t_draws t + bool 0 1 (for == against)
                , t_losses = t_losses t + bool 0 1 (for < against)

get :: State s s
get = State $ \x -> (x, x)

put s = State $ const (s, ())

Additionally, here's the example given in the post translated to my Haskell implementation:

import SoccerLeague
import Data.Maybe (fromMaybe)

example :: State League [Int]
example = do
  push "Man Utd 3 - 0 Liverpool"
  l1 <- sequence [goalsFor "Man Utd", points "Man Utd", points "Liverpool", goalDifference "Liverpool"]
  push "Liverpool 1 - 1 Man Utd"
  l2 <- sequence [goalsFor "Man Utd", points "Man Utd", points "Liverpool", goalsAgainst "Man Utd", points "Tottenham"]
  return $ map (fromMaybe 0) $ l1 ++ l2

main :: IO ()
main = do
  sequence_ $ map print $ snd $ runState example empty

Definitely some things missing and room for improvement but here we go. JavaScript.

Ruby, concise as usual:

        h_name, a_name = $1, $4
        h_goal, a_goal = $2.to_i, $3.to_i
        result = h_goal <=> a_goal

        @results[h_name] = Hash.new(0) unless @results.has_key? h_name
        @results[a_name] = Hash.new(0) unless @results.has_key? a_name

        @results[h_name].tap do |stats|
