Question on iterating a hash

I have a hash that looks like this : {"1"=>"0, "3"="1", "45"=>"1",
"101"=>"0"}

What I want is an array of all the keys that have hash values equal to
"1" ["3","45"] in this case.

Yeah, i can just iterate the keys... but it seems like there is a "ruby"
way to do this. Any thoughts?

thx

>> h = Hash[*%w{1 0 3 1 45 1 101 0}]
=> {"45"=>"1", "1"=>"0", "101"=>"0", "3"=>"1"}
>> h.select { |key, value| value == "1" }.map { |key, value| key }
=> ["45", "3"]

Hope that helps.

{"1"=>"0", "3"=>"1", "45"=>"1","101"=>"0"}.select{|k,v| v=="1"}.map{|e|e.first}

Another option:

h.map{|k,v| k if v=='1'}.compact

And of course an inject version:
h.inject(){|a,b| a<<b[0] if b[1]=='1';a}

h.select { |key, value| value == "1" }.map { |key, value| key }

=> ["45", "3"]

Wouldn't it be easier to iterate through the keys? I'm not sure why
Phil didn't want to. (Phil?)

   h.keys.select {|k| h[k] == 1}

If you're sure nil isn't a key :slight_smile:

You can even access key and value separately:

h.inject() {|a,(k,v)| a << k if v == '1'; a}

Since he wants the keys of the hash in an array, wouldn't you need to do
this..

result = h.keys.select {|k| h[k] == 1}
result = result.keys

I'm sure there's a one-liner for this somewhere, but I need more coffee.

Don't know, but here is another one:

h.select{|k, v| v == "1" }.transpose.first

OK... but I'm still not getting why just "select"ing the ones you want
isn't the best way.

I'd be very suprised if it ever happened. But I still like the simple
select version best :slight_smile:

i think it's more :
h.keys.select {|k| h[k] == "1"}

if h is really :
h = Hash[*%w{1 0 3 1 45 1 101 0}]

that's to say String not Fixnum ))

I know the feeling well. That's why we have multiple people on the
