Subject: Re: FasterCSV.foreach loop

Good day

Thanks to Mr. James Edward Gray II, I understand more and more :-)

After trying to create an array of arrays, I got stuck again. It seems I 
can't properly create such an array. This is my mistake:

data = FCSV.table(input_file)
employee_id = data[:id].uniq

employee_id.each do |id|
  employee_record = []
  FCSV.foreach(input_file, :headers => true) do |row|
    if row["id"].to_i == id
      employee_record << [row]
#      create_odf_file(employee_record)
    end
  end
  break #just for testing once
end

I saw that FasterCSV.foreach creates an array/hash/something?
#<FasterCSV::Table mode:col_or_row row_count:14>

My array looks like this, but I can't access certain fields:
[[#<FasterCSV::Row "id":"1" "name":"baiki" "valid_time":"5:00" 
"date":"9/10/2009">], [#<FasterCSV::Row "id":"1" "name":"baiki" 
"valid_time":"1:45" "date":"9/14/2009">], [#<FasterCSV::Row "id":"1" 
"name":"baiki" "valid_time":"5:00" "date":"9/11/2009">], 
[#<FasterCSV::Row "id":"1" "name":"baiki" "valid_time":"4:00" 
"date":"9/12/2009">], [#<FasterCSV::Row "id":"1" "name":"baiki" 
"valid_time":"2:00" "date":"9/13/2009">]]

If I want an array which contains all records from one employee, should 
I use FasterCSV's filter class method?

Or, how else can I pass this information to a class (ie. odf-report) in 
order to create the ODF output?

I'll keep trying. BTW: If your once in our country, let me know :-)
