how to make ruby block return an array of variable in the block?

Question

in a ruby block: ``` user.trips.each { |trip| trip.pickedpost.user } ``` How can I make the code return an array of users? If I run the block ``` user.trips.each { |trip| puts trip.pickedpost.user } ``` irb shows ``` # # => [#, #] ``` the block returns an array of trip object, which is not what I want. How can I make the block return an user array? Thanks

Accepted Answer

Looks like what you want is to `.collect()` it:

```
user.trips.collect { |trip| trip.pickedpost.user }
```

Or using `.map()`

```
user.trips.map(&:pickedpost).map(&:user)
```
