Subject: Re: Flatten out Hash

Perhaps a better solution is to yield an array of keys (being the 'path' 
to reach the end node), because then the caller can choose how to 
combine them.

class Hash
  def flat_each(prefix=[], &blk)
    each do |k,v|
      if v.is_a?(Hash)
        v.flat_each(prefix+[k], &blk)
      else
        yield prefix+[k], v
      end
    end
  end
end

require 'enumerator'
h = {"a"=>{"b"=>{"c"=>1}, "b2"=>{"c2"=>2}}}
h = {"a"=>{"b"=>{"c"=>1}, "b2"=>{"c2"=> {"d2" => 2}}}}
p h.to_enum(:flat_each).collect { |k,v| [k.join(": "),v] }
h.flat_each do |k,v|
  puts "#{k.join("/")} => #{v}"
end
