Instance variables are prefixed with an @ symbol. I would guess that you
want countExch to be an instance variable. Also, I think the declaration
might need to go in the initialize method.

Someone who is more experienced w/ Ruby please give a more accurate and/or
complete answer.

class ReportBuilder
 def initialize
   @countExch=Hash.new
 end

def getStats(symbolObjColl)
       startCounter=0
       #### add a loop to count thro symbolcollection.
       symbolObjColl.each{|eachSymbolObj|


       if (@countExch.has_key?(eachSymbolObj.exchange))

@countExch[eachSymbolObj.exchange]=@countExch[eachSymbolObj.exchange]+=1

       else
           @countExch[eachSymbolObj.exchange]=startCounter+=1;
       end
       }

       puts    @countExch.to_s



   end


end
