Fix the Bugs (Syntax) - My First Kata

Description

Fix the Bugs (Syntax) - My First Kata

Overview

Hello, this is my first Kata so forgive me if it is of poor quality.

In this Kata you should fix/create a program that returns the following values:

• false/False if either a or b (or both) are not numbers
• a % b plus b % a if both arguments are numbers

You may assume the following:

1. If a and b are both numbers, neither of a or b will be 0.

Language-Specific Instructions

Javascript and PHP

In this Kata you should try to fix all the syntax errors found in the code.

Once you think all the bugs are fixed run the code to see if it works. A correct solution should return the values specified in the overview.

Extension: Once you have fixed all the syntax errors present in the code (basic requirement), you may attempt to optimise the code or try a different approach by coding it from scratch.

def my_first_kata(a,b)
  if a.type or b.type == "number" return False
    else
        return a % b ++ b % a end
end

My Solution

def my_first_kata(a,b)
  return false if a.class != Integer || b.class != Integer  
  a % b + b % a
end

Better/Alternative solution from Codewars

def my_first_kata(a,b)
  a % b + b % a rescue false
end
