Re^5: Common hash keys

    No, I never suggested that. My suggestion is to reuse one of the hashes, and iterate over the keys of the other.
    Thanks, but I wait till someone who uderstands the purpose of hashes comes along and gives me the appropriate syntax.

    No need to be offensive just because I don't present you the solution on a silver plate.

    computer scientist generally don't see a problem with that since the algorithm is still O(n), which means the time (and space) to compute it grows only linear with the number of keys in the hashes. Many algorithms are not that nice.
