+ @summary
+ Recursively merges two or more hashes together and returns the resulting hash.
- For example:
+ @example Example usage
- $hash1 = {'one' => 1, 'two' => 2, 'three' => { 'four' => 4 } }
- $hash2 = {'two' => 'dos', 'three' => { 'five' => 5 } }
- $merged_hash = deep_merge($hash1, $hash2)
- # The resulting hash is equivalent to:
- # $merged_hash = { 'one' => 1, 'two' => 'dos', 'three' => { 'four' => 4, 'five' => 5 } }
+ $hash1 = {'one' => 1, 'two' => 2, 'three' => { 'four' => 4 } }
+ $hash2 = {'two' => 'dos', 'three' => { 'five' => 5 } }
+ $merged_hash = deep_merge($hash1, $hash2)
- When there is a duplicate key that is a hash, they are recursively merged.
- When there is a duplicate key that is not a hash, the key in the rightmost hash will "win."
+ The resulting hash is equivalent to:
- ENDHEREDOC
+ $merged_hash = { 'one' => 1, 'two' => 'dos', 'three' => { 'four' => 4, 'five' => 5 } }
+
+ When there is a duplicate key that is a hash, they are recursively merged.
+ When there is a duplicate key that is not a hash, the key in the rightmost hash will "win."
+
+ @return [Hash] The merged hash
