can't seem to understand what to do here.
grocery_item = { "item" => "Bread", "quantity" => 1, "brand" => "Treehouse Bread Company" }
calories = { "calories" => 100 } puts hash.merge({ final_item => grocery_item })

In this case the challenge is asking you to create a new hash, final_item
, which is created by merging grocery_item
and calories
. In this case you won't need to use a puts statement as it's only requesting that you merge the two hashes and nothing needs to be explicitly returned.
Additionally you'll want to call the merge method directly on one of the hashes you're merging. My solution (in addition to the provided code) looked like the following:
final_item = grocery_item.merge(calories)
I hope that helps!
