An array of hashes like
[{color: "red", size: "large"},{color: "blue", size: "small"},{color: purple, size: "medium"},{color: "pink", size: "small"}]
Also another hash:
{small: 1, medium: 2, large: 3, x_large: 4}
How would someone replace all the sizes by their respective numbers and sum up those numbers?
The problem could be solved manually by replacing the numbers with the sizes like so:
[{color: "red", size: 3},{color: "blue", size: 1},{color: purple, size: 2},{color: "pink", size: 1}]
Then adding them up the number representation of the sizes would output: 7
