# Step 1: Working with Arrays and Hashes | |
# Copy your solution from ex_teddit_conditional.rb in 02_Variables_Conditionals | |
# Create an empty stories array. This will be used to hold all stories we capture. | |
# Users enter the story as they do now, but it gets put in a hash instead. | |
# Update any reference to the story (upvotes, category and title) | |
# Your story hash should look like the one below: | |
# { title: "Monkeys thank mayor for flounder tooth necklace", category: "Teeth", upvotes: 1 } | |
# Add the hash to an array called stories and print "Story: Monkeys thank mayor for flounder tooth necklace, Category: (Teeth), Current Upvotes: 1" | |
# Using the stories array | |
# Test your cat, bacon, and food upvote conditional logic. | |
# | |
# Step 2: Adding Loops | |
# Use a loop, so that your program continues to ask a user for stories until they chose to quit. ("Would you like to add another story? Enter 'y' or 'n'") | |
# Once the user is finished with entering their stories, use .each to print each story in the stories array. | |
# | |
