title: bracket syntax for Ruby Hashes
body: <p>Do these two statements pass the same type of argument (a Hash) to the new method?</p>
  
  <pre><code>@seat = Seat.new(:flight_id =&gt; @flight.id)
  
  @seat = Seat.new({:flight_id =&gt; @flight.id})
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Do the Hash brackets {} change anything in the second example?</p>
