title: Assigning a hash to a hash
body: <p>Right now I have two hashes. I want to assign one entire hash to an id in a second hash. However, I am having trouble assigning that hash into the other hash.</p>
  
  <p>Can you assign a hash into another hash by just saying:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$nodes{$id}=%nodeHash;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Right now this doesn't work because when I say:</p>
  
  <pre><code>print Dumper(\%nodes);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get this as a result:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$VAR1 = {
        'c2' =&gt; '4/8',
        'c1' =&gt; {}
      };
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Sorry if this doesn't totally make sense, I am not a very experienced programmer so a hash of hashes is pretty complex.</p>
