We need to set up the contact_list variable as an array filled with hashes. Each hash in the array is going to represent

I think this is the correct way to append an array? I kept being bounced back to the first task for some reason

contact.rb 
contact_list = []

contact = {"name" => "", "phone_number" => "" }


contact[get_name] = "name" 
contact[get_phone_number] = "phone_number"
contact_list.push(contact())

I'm sorry.. Correct code is this 

contact_list = []

contact = {"name" => "", "phone_number" => "" }

contact[get_name] = "name" 
contact[get_phone_number] = "phone_number" 
contact_list.push(contact)

Previously I was entering "contact_list.push(contact())" Correct way should be "contact_list.push(contact)"

Thanks!
