ruby logic question with arrays and hashes
Hi there, I need to manipulate a hash so that I can get a list of names with their projects.
Right now I'm doing this in console
As you can see... in the final output there is no first project for name1 anymore, because second project overwrote the first one. I need to append it in a way where I don't loose the first project.
How can I do that?

>> elist["name1"] = {:projects => ["second project"]}
=> {:projects=>["second project"]}
>> elist
=> {"name1"=>{:projects=>["second project"]}, "name2"=>{:projects=>["first project"]}}
