def create_shopping_list
hash = { "name" => name, "items" => Array.new }
return hash
end
should't this work?
def create_shopping_list
hash = { "name" => name, "items" => Array.new }
return hash
end

def create_shopping_list
hash = { "name" => name, "items" => Array.new }
return hash
end
list = create_shopping_list()
puts list.inspect
1: from shop.rb:6:in <main>'
shop.rb:2:in
create_shopping_list': undefined local variable or method `name' for main:O
bject (NameError)
Since name is undefined you could just delete it so your hash has items only.
