Subject: Re: How to take information from a text file and add them to an array

Just to take this a bit further and give you a practical demonstration, 
although you might want to look into encrypting the passwords as well 
for safer storage...

Assuming the input is an already-validated tab-delimited file with 
"username\tpassword" as the format:

users_passwords = Hash.new
temparray = File.read('input.txt').split(/\n/).map! { |line| 
line.split("\t") }
temparray.each { |ar| users_passwords[ar[0]] = ar[1] }
p users_passwords
