It is primarily associated with PHP, Ruby and Perl programming languages, which use it to declare hashes. Using a fat comma to bind key-value pairs in a hash, instead of using a comma, is considered an example of good idiomatic Perl. [1] In CoffeeScript and TypeScript, the fat comma is used to declare a function that is bound to this. [2] [3]
Here, attr_reader is an example of metaprogramming in Ruby: attr_accessor defines getter and setter methods of instance variables, but attr_reader only getter methods. The last evaluated statement in a method is its return value, allowing the omission of an explicit return statement.
A Use of the Y Combinator in Ruby - Implements autovivification in Ruby with the Y Combinator. Hash#autonew in the Ruby gem "facets" adds autovivification on hash reads; The Ruby gem "xkeys" facilitates nested structure traversal and autovivifies on array or hash writes

A new convention of using #to_h to convert objects to Hashes [30] Starting with 2.1.0, Ruby's versioning policy changed to be more similar to semantic versioning. [31] Ruby 2.2.0 includes speed-ups, bugfixes, and library updates and removes some deprecated APIs.
A Quick (and Hopefully Painless) Ride Through Ruby (with Cartoon Foxes): basic introduction to central Ruby concepts Floating Little Leaves of Code: evaluation and values, hashes and lists Them What Make the Rules and Them What Live the Dream: case/when, while/until, variable scope, blocks, methods, class definitions, class attributes, objects ...
A hash function is any function that can be used to map data of arbitrary size to fixed-size values, though there are some hash functions that support variable-length output. [1] The values returned by a hash function are called hash values, hash codes, hash digests, digests, or simply hashes. [2]
In computer science, a hash table is a data structure that implements an associative array, also called a dictionary or simply map; an associative array is an abstract data type that maps keys to values. [2] A hash table uses a hash function to compute an index, also called a hash code, into an array of buckets or slots, from which the desired ...
