BTW have you tried:

module Enumerable

  # Like <tt>#map</tt>/<tt>#collect</tt>, but it generates a Hash.  The
block
  # is expected to return two values: the key and the value for the new
hash.
  #
  #   numbers  = (1..3)
  #   squares  = numbers.graph { |n| [n, n*n] }   # { 1=>1, 2=>4, 3=>9
}
  #   sq_roots = numbers.graph { |n| [n*n, n] }   # { 1=>1, 4=>2, 9=>3
}
  #

  def graph(&yld)
    if yld
      inject({}) do |h,kv|
        nk, nv = yld[*kv]
        h[nk] = nv
        h
      end
    else
      Hash[*self.to_a.flatten]
    end
  end

end
