Subject: Create a counter in a hash to return first 10 results only

New to ruby..

I created a hash array and everything works fine except I can't figure
out how to include a counter to return the first 10 results only.

Thanks John

Here is the code

h = Hash.new
good_words.each { |w|
    if h.has_key?(w)
      h[w] = h[w] + 1
    else
      h[w] = 1
    end
  }

# sort the hash by value, and then print it in this sorted order

h.sort{|a,b| b[1]<=>a[1]}.each { |elem|

   puts "\"#{elem[0]}\" has #{elem[1]} occurrences"

}
