# Double Splat To Merge Hashes
|
||||
|
||||
One way of merging two hashes is with `#merge`:
|
||||
|
||||
```ruby
|
||||
> h1 = {a: 1, b: 2}
|
||||
=> {:a=>1, :b=>2}
|
||||
> h2 = {c: 3, d: 4}
|
||||
=> {:c=>3, :d=>4}
|
||||
> h1.merge(h2)
|
||||
=> {:a=>1, :b=>2, :c=>3, :d=>4}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can also use double splats for a slightly more concise approach:
|
||||
|
||||
```ruby
|
||||
> h1 = {a: 1, b: 2}
|
||||
=> {:a=>1, :b=>2}
|
||||
> h2 = {c: 3, d: 4}
|
||||
=> {:c=>3, :d=>4}
|
||||
> {**h1, **h2}
|
||||
=> {:a=>1, :b=>2, :c=>3, :d=>4}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This works particularly well when you want to expand an existing hash into a
|
||||
hash you are creating on the fly:
|
||||
|
||||
```ruby
|
||||
> h1 = {a: 1, b: 2}
|
||||
=> {:a=>1, :b=>2}
|
||||
> {c: 3, d: 4, **h1}
|
||||
=> {:c=>3, :d=>4, :a=>1, :b=>2}
|
||||
```
