Random Menu

Congratulations! You're submitting your assignment.

Comprehension Questions

Question	Answer
Would a hash work just as well as an Array in this project? Why?	I think a hash with arrays inside of it for each menu item would have been useful because it is a way to organize key (menu item number) value (menu items) pairs.
Did you find yourself repeating the same code? Why did you have to do it that way?	I repeated the code three times to randomly generate the three parts of each menu item. I did it that way because they were three separate variables that needed to be determined. They could be generated the same way, but I didn't see how to combine/simplify the code.
What type of loop did you use? Why did you choose that type?	I used a times loop because I knew exactly how many times I wanted to run the block of code.

What We're Looking For

Feature	Feedback
Baseline
Random Menu of 10 items displayed in the terminal.	Yes
Generator pulls one random item from each array to create menu items.	Yes
Readable code with consistent indentation.	Yes

Good work overall!

Note that with a times loop, you get an iteration variable corresponding to the current count. So this code could be rewritten as:

10.times do |n|
  # ..get descrip, how, what...
  print "#{n+1}. #{descrip} #{how} #{what}\n\n"
end

Both ways work - use the one that you think makes the most sense to you.
