daemon_percentages.rb and Ruby Autovivification
Both Jim Weirich and
Ben Summers were kind enough to
email me about my Daemon
Logging Percentages and Playing with Ruby Idioms post. They sent
me an explanation on how to do the hash assignment in a way I find much
nicer, so with no more delays I present - Option 4:
tally = Hash.new(0)
tally[daemon] += 1
It really is that simple - and I still missed it by a mile. I've updated the script to use this and I wanted to say thank you for the pointer, so thank you both.
