returning an array that contains an array and hash in ruby method?

Question

HI

is it possible to return an array that contains an array and hash from a method in ruby?

i.e

def something
array_new = [another_thing, another_thing_2]
hash_map = get_hash()

return [array_new, hash_map]

end

and to retrieve the array:

some_array, some_hash = something()

thanks

Sure, that's perfectly possible and works exactly as in your example.
