Is the output for Symbols as Hash Keys correct?

Is it the true answer?

require 'rubygems'
gem 'awesome_print'
require 'awesome_print'

h1 = Hash.new


h1['name'] = 'Jakz'
h1['age'] = 20
h1['email'] = 'woopixii@gmail.com'




def convert(h)
    h2 = Hash.new

    h.map { |key,value|  
        h2[key.to_sym] = value
    }

    ap h2


end

convert h1

Is it this the answer for Extra credit for Hashed Topic?

I think the output is OK, but read the rest of the assignment: they want you to write a function (or rather a method, which is the next topic covered in this course), and it should work recursively. So you want it to take arguments and you want it to go through each of those arguments.

If it produces the results you expected then it's good.
