Teacher's Notes Equality

Should the true and false values be switched for the comparisons done in the teacher's notes?

Copy of Notes:

hash = { "item" => "Bread", "quantity" => 1, "brand" => "Treehouse Bread Company" }

milk = { "item" => "Milk", "quantity" => 1, "brand" => "Treehouse Dairy" }

puts milk == hash # => true

bread = { "item" => "Bread", "quantity" => 1, "brand" => "Treehouse Bread Company" }

puts hash == bread # => false

yes, the answers are reversed. you can run this through pry, probably irb to.

go to your command line and type in:

 gem install pry

after the install type this into your terminal

after that you can copy in those items you have there one by one and see the results for yourself.
