Please guys kindle help me with this Create a method named "create_shopping_list" that returns a hash. It does not need to ask for a name or get anything from standard input.

Writing hash by itself doesn't create a new Hash in Ruby. There're couple ways to do it here.
def create_shopping_list
return {}
end
def create_shopping_list
return Hash.new # create new instance of Hash
end
Hope it helps.
