Just wondering if there's an idiom for this. Say I have an array "a",
each element is a hash:
a =[ {"a" => "eh", "b" => "bee"},
{"c" => "see", "d" => "dee"},
{"e" => "eee", "f" => "eff"}]
And I want to perform some sort of transformation on all the hash
values, but still end up with an array of the hashes.
Is there a cleaner (not necessarily shorter... I prefer elegantly
readable) way than:
a.each do |row|
row.each { |k,v| {row[k] => v.upcase }
end
v is a reference to the hash element itself, so you can just do this
(I also changed your each to each_value because you only need the value:
a.each do |row|
row.each_value {|v| v.upcase! }
end
