I feel very fortunate when I talk to my wife about my job/hobby...
The other day I was telling her why I convereted a data structure from a
group of arrays to a group of hashes. She asked what an array was, then
what a hash was. Then she came up with her own summary: hash =
associatave array!
I love my wife!
