If they're two columns of a database, then this will probably be more
helpful:

rows = @selected_ciid_and_asso_types.split(',').map {|e| e.split(':')}
=> [["3", "43"], ["2", "65"], ["3", "50"]]

You could also change the last bit to e.split(':').map {|s| s.to_i} if you
wanted [[3, 43], [2, 65], [3, 50]] instead.
