Ruby ranges issue

I am searching a range here but it seems to give me blank results.

numbers = ["03","03","06","06","06","07","09","10"]

numbers.each do |n|
    result = case n
        when 1..5 then "Jan"
        when 6..10 then "Feb"
    end
    puts result
end

Any help? Thanks

The range you have is an integer range. For this to work your input also needs to be in integers :

numbers = ["03","03","06","06","06","07","09","10"]
numbers.each do |n|
    result = case n.to_i
        when 1..5 then "Jan"
        when 6..10 then "Feb"
    end
    puts result
end

You could also leave it as strings and do it this way :

numbers = ["03","03","06","06","06","07","09","10"]
numbers.each do |n|
    result = case n
        when '01'..'05' then "Jan"
        when '06'..'10' then "Feb"
    end
    puts result
end
