Can't convert string to integer ruby error when accessing Hash/Array

Question

I am new to ruby. So I was trying to get data from my data array but I get a "can't convert String into Integer" error.

The way I am accessing data is

data["myobject"]

Please provide code and explain what you're trying to achieve. — Jesper

It seem that data is an array, not a hash.

I think data looks like this :

data=['foo', 'bar']

instead of looking like this :

data={'myObject'=>'foo', 'myObject2'=>'bar'}

So try to change data or retrieve data by its index

data[0]
