[16:42] <thowe> I apparently don't understand how to create a hash?  I am sending a hash to a sub routine, but it tells me "ype check failed in binding to parameter '%address'; expected Associative[Hash] but got Hash ({:address_status_id(...)".  I don't understand how to send what it wants.  I've tried creating the hash 4 different ways.

[18:04] <disbot> <antononcube> I think Associative[Hash] means that the value are hashmaps. Are they?

[18:18] <thowe> I thought that too, but I then created the hash from scratch to check and got the same thing.

[18:20] <thowe> It seems to be something with how it lands in the object tree or something...  I think it may be becasue I didn't explicitly create with Hash.new so it sort of was coerced into a Hash?  But the odd thing is it says i is getting a Hash, but expecting "Associative[Hash]"  which I don't get becasue my subroutine signature said "Hash".  Now I am wondering if it is becasue I did (Hash %hashthing) instead of (Hash $hashthing)

[18:20] <thowe> % instead of $

[18:21] <thowe> I gave up for now because I need to get this done for someone at work, but I'll have to go back and figure it out.
