8,347 PointsHaving difficulty with Task 2 of Working with Hash Values.
So I'm passing Task 1 with no difficulty. But overtime I add to the cods for Task 2 it tells me that Task 1 no longer passes. The only way I can get that to still pass is if I remove the "grocery_list" name for Array but then I still fail Task 2 because I don't have the correct name. I would love some guidance on this please!
grocery_item = { "item" => "Bread", "quantity" => 1, "brand" => "Treehouse Bread Company" }
if grocery_item.has_value?("Bread")
grocery_item.store("food", true)
end
grocery_item.values_at("item" => grocery_list.new)

36,441 PointsOK, so you should not have to modify any code from Task 1 to make Task 2 work.
You want to create a new variable. we do it like this:
grocery_list = <some value>
we need to replace <some value> with what they are asking us - which is calling values_at
method on the grocery_item
hash, with "item"
as the argument. Please watch the video again and check the teacher's notes under the video. All the answers are here:
