From: mjbjr@... Date: 2001-03-29T15:40:34+09:00 Subject: [ruby-talk:13311] hash values can't change?? According to the ProgrammingRuby docs, a hash value can't change. Why is this? I've just started to program in Ruby, and I decided that for my first Ruby program would process a file of numbers, keeping track how many times each number appeared. A hash seems like the easiest way to go, but obviously not the best way if its going to fail. Suggestions for an alternative way of doing it, appreciated. Thank you - Martin J.
