Perhaps

This a gem of a limited usefulness developed for the sole purpose of experimenting with Ruby's dynamic anarchy. It adds a global perhaps method (aliased as maybe), allowing you to write non-deterministic code easily.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'perhaps'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install perhaps

You can now replace traditional control structures with less predictable ones.

perhaps do
  some_object.save 
end

or if it looks better to you

maybe do
  something_else.save
end

In both cases, the block has a 50% probability of executing.

If you want to alter that, you can add an argument

maybe(0.8) do
  puts "This is pretty likely to happen"
end

and your block will have an 80% probability of executing. Filling in additional arguments, non-numeric values or any numeric values outside the (0..1) range will trigger an ArgumentError.
