I know about ruby's % substitutions, but I can't decipher that line--you 
have obfuscated the code very well!  Not a good thing.   I would write 
that line as:

puts "%d\t%s => %s" % [num+=1, key, val]

lol.  You are using the % shortcut for %Q and you are using [] as the 
delimiter.  I have only one thing to say: horrible code writing.
