def create_list print "What is the list name? " name = gets.chomp
hash = { "name" => name, "items" => Array.new }
return hash
end
def add_list_item print "What is the item called? " item_name = gets.chomp
hash = { "name" => item_name } return hash end
list = create_list() puts list.inspect
add_list_item().inspect
I have copied what he did in the video exactly, but for some reason whenever I type the item the program ends and dosen't display name ==> "(What I typed)"

puts add_list_item().inspect
you just have
add_list_item().inspect

Ruby is a super cool language, enjoy!
def create_list
print "What is the list name? "
name = gets.chomp
hash = { "name" => name, "items" => Array.new }
return hash
end
def add_list_item
print "What is the item called? "
item_name = gets.chomp
hash = { "name" => item_name }
return hash
end
list = create_list()
puts list.inspect
puts add_list_item().inspect # you needed a puts here
