648 Pointswhy is task 1 no longer passing?
I haven't changed any of my code for task 1, so why is it not passing now?
grocery_item = { "item" => "Bread", "quantity" => 1, "brand" => "Treehouse Bread Company" }
grocery_item.has_value?("Bread")
grocery_item.store("food", true)
grocery_item.values_at("item")
grocery_list = {"item")

grocery_item.has_value?("Bread") #this line is correct, again it is to check with a condition, so where is "if"
grocery_item.store("food", true) #this line is correct
#in ruby, if you start with if, you should end, it with "end"
grocery_item.values_at("item") #take off this line, question have not asked you to do it
grocery_list = {"item") #take off this line too

648 Pointssorry, you said: #in ruby, if you start with if, you should end, it with "end" why do i need an if and end here?
and the last 2 lines are for the 2nd task. i've completed it now, but it seems strange to me that the 2nd task asks: "Use the values_at method on the grocery_item hash to get an array consisting of a single value: the value of the "item" key. Store the returned array in a variable named grocery_list."
and i can completely this task using:
grocery_item.values_at("bread") grocery_list = ["Bread"]
OR
grocery_item.values_at("item") grocery_list = ["Bread"]
