also, this method returns a boolean and so it should end with a "?" like "is_santa_clausable?"

Yeah, I had that implemented but my sort code was returning a new array and that is the array I was pulling the gift from. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

I cannot seem to get past the fourth test on this kata. I get the following error:

Test Failed: Incorrect queue length - Expected: 1, instead got: 2

I have these tests currently passing before trying to submit:

giftList = HolidayPriorityQueue.new
length = 0

Test.assert_equals(giftList.buyGift(), '')

length = giftList.addGift( { 'gift' => 'Water gun', 'priority' => 1 } )
Test.assert_equals(length, 1, 'Incorrect queue length')

length = giftList.addGift( { 'gift' => 'BB gun', 'priority' => 2 } )
Test.assert_equals(length, 2)

Test.assert_equals(giftList.buyGift(), 'Water gun')

I have re-read the instructions several times and it appears that these tests cover all the requirements. I thought maybe this was a test for invalid hashes so I added some code to verify the existence of the "gift" and "priority" keys but still got the failure above.

Since I cannot see the creator's tests without giving up the points I could earn, I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction.

Thanks!
