Introduction to Array and Hash

Explore the basics of Ruby's composite data types by learning how to use arrays and hashes. Understand key methods like collect, empty?, select, and any? to manipulate and query data. This lesson helps you practice organizing and accessing data efficiently using these essential Ruby structures.

We'll cover the following...
