Ruby Ruby Collections Ruby Hashes Working with Hash Keys

i have no clue how to do this

i don't understand the question

hash.rb
hash = { "name" => "Bread", "quantity" => 1, "calories" => 100 }

hash.has_key?("calories")
food =  "true

1 Answer

Since has_key? returns true if the hash has the key, or false if it doesn't, you can assign the result directly to the food variable to pass the challenge. As shown in the previous video you have the correct syntax hash.has_key?("calories"). You just need to assign this to food.
