a = { "a" => 100, "b" => 200 }

# declaring Hash value
b = {"a" => 100, "c"=>30}


puts "delete_if   a : #{a.delete_if{|key, value| value > 200 } }\n\n"

puts "delete_if   b : #{b.delete_if{|key, value| key == "a" } }\n\n"

Output :

delete_if   a : {"a"=>100, "b"=>200}

delete_if   b : {"c"=>30}

Example #2:

# declaring Hash value
c = {"a" => 100, "c" => 300, "b" => 200}

puts "delete   b : #{c.delete_if{|key, value| key <= "b" } }\n\n"
