Key-value storage with a database backend.

Data remains in the hash and can be reused.

Everything disappears, and the hash will be empty.

When the program ends, what happens with the keys and values of a Ruby hash on the next run?

A mix of hashes, arrays, and simple types, and can be used in Ruby.

A mix of hashes, arrays, and simple types and cannot be used in Ruby.

JavaScript Object Notation, and there is no JSON support in Ruby. 

What is the result of the following expression?
```ruby
dict = {
  'hello' => 'привет',
  'Vladimir' => 'Володя',
  'bye' => 'пока',
  'Sarah' => 'Сара'  
}
dict['hello'] + ', ' + dict['Vladimir']

What is the result of the following expression?
<pre><code class="language-ruby">dict = {
 'hello' =&gt; 'привет',
 'Vladimir' =&gt; 'Володя',
 'bye' =&gt; 'пока',
 'Sarah' =&gt; 'Сара' 
}
dict['hello'] + ', ' + dict['Vladimir']</code></pre>

An array has _____ lookup complexity.

What is the result of the following expression?
```ruby
hh = {}
hh['sam'] = 'math';
hh['pat'] = 'arts';
hh[:pat]

What is the result of the following expression?
<pre><code class="language-ruby">hh = {}
hh['sam'] = 'math';
hh['pat'] = 'arts';
hh[:pat]</code></pre>

What is the result of the following expression?
```ruby
hh = Hash.new(0)
hh['sam'] = 'math';
hh['pat'] = 'arts';
hh[:pat]

What is the result of the following expression?
<pre><code class="language-ruby">hh = Hash.new(0)
hh['sam'] = 'math';
hh['pat'] = 'arts';
hh[:pat]</code></pre>

What is the result of the following expression?
```ruby
def calc(a, b)
  a ** b
end

calc(2, 8)

What is the result of the following expression?
<pre><code class="language-ruby">def calc(a, b)
 a ** b
end

calc(2, 8)</code></pre>

**True or False:** We should prefer a hash set over a regular hash when there is no need for keeping values in a hash, and you have only keys to add.

What is the result of the following expression?
```ruby
users = [
  {
    address1: {
      street1: '123 Market street',
      street2: 'apt 504'
    }
  },
  {
    address2: {
      street1: '555 El Camino',
      street2: 'unit 5'
    }
  },
]

users[1].dig(:address2, :street2)

What is the result of the following expression?
<pre><code class="language-ruby">users = [
 {
 address1: {
 street1: '123 Market street',
 street2: 'apt 504'
 }
 },

What is the result of the following expression?
```ruby
hh = { admin: false, login: 'pat', password: '123456' }
