3,223 PointsNeed help with appending a hash into an array
It might just be because it late, but I am stuck with this part of the question. Ive tried a few of the things that you see in the previous video but none work. Im not sure if I have to add to the code or alter the method i already have.
class BankAccount
attr_reader :name
def initialize(name)
@name = name
@transactions = []
end
def add_transaction(description, amount)
@transaction.push(:description, description, :amount, amount)
end
end

56,413 PointsTo push a hash, first you need a hash literal, i.e. two curly-braces (also note that the instance variable is transactions, plural).
@transactions.push( {} ) # pushes an empty hash
Then inside the hash you need two key-value pairs:
@transactions.push( {description: description, amount: amount} )
Or with hashrocket syntax
@transactions.push({:description => description, :amount => amount})
