How to get thelas value form a hash?

[Chaosg1]

That 's realy it, How can I get the last value from a hash?
$hash = {}
for i in $game_map.events.values
$hash = i.x

How Can I get the last value from that HASH?

 

[Prexus]

last_value = $hash["#{$hash.keys.last}"]

that should work I think.

 

[Chaosg1]

Thanx I will check it out...

I was wrong, btw. Interestingly enough this game up in a script i'm making right now and I realized its this:

last_value = $hash.values["#{$hash.keys.last}"]

the .values is what I was missing before.

 

[Chaosg1]

I didn't had time to check it, but Now I will Thank you Prexus!

EDIT: It returns me a nil...

wouldn't this work ?

hash.values[-1]

 

[Prexus]

last_value = $hash.values["#{$hash.keys.last}".to_i]

I again editted it to get it to work x_x

I'm not sure if -1 index works for aHash object. Simply because there is no mention of it in the documentation whereas there is a mention of it in the Array class documentation. But I could easily be wrong.

I tested it :

hash = {}
hash['a'] = 3
hash['d'] = 15
hash[1] = 5

p hash.values[-1] # 15

actually hash.values returns an array so it works

 

[Chaosg1]

Ok so this means that.

$hash = {}
for i in $game_map.events.values
  $hash[i] = i
end

and the last event in the map is event03

So to get the last Id I would use..
$hash.values[-1]
and it would return 3?

 

[Selwyn]

yeah it should return event 3

you can test it if you know that it's event #3 :

$hash = {}
for i in $game_map.events.values
  $hash[i] = i
end

p hash.values[-1] == $game_map.events[3] # should return true or false

Thanx it works...
Now I might Finish my script :P lol
