Re^2: List in hash in hash example : As future RC task?

I am thinking that the above question might be formed into a task for the Rosetta Code site?

If I do then I will make sure to announce it here and ask you if you would like to contribute (or allow someone to add your solution with attribution), to the tasks examples.

Perhaps. I glanced through the categories from the link you provided and i found no applicable parent category (i was looking for Data Structures, Complex Data Structures, Tuples, etc. ... no luck) As it stands, your question is too specific in how you want to organize your data into Hashes and Arrays. One really needs to only understand how Hashes can store Arrays and Hashes, and how Arrays can store Hashes and Arrays -- the rest is combinations and variations of AoA, HoH, AoH and HoA. So, if you want to supply some examples for Rosetta Code, then i think you will do well by first perusing perldsc and then find similar documentation for Python. Try to use very generic examples for your data structures. I think describing each of the following is more than enough: AoA, HoH, AoH, and HoA. Perhaps you can add this as a new category called "Complex Data Structures."
