Re: using map to generate a hash of hash

But I don't understand how to take my 4 values and dump them in my hash, since map goes on 1 element of the list at a time....

that's about right. someone clever might be able to come up with a way to do what you want using map, but really that's the wrong tool for the job. a simple for loop would work much better and probably be clearer.

Well, I'm aware that I can do that more easily using a loop but I'm very curious to find out if and how this can be solved with map.	[reply]
