[Rails] Re: Learning About Symbols

Are these true or false?

yaml['config'] == yaml[:config]

yaml['config']['another_setting'] == yaml[:config][:another_setting]

The answer to both is false.

yaml['config'] shows me the values from the yml file. yaml[:config] doesn't.

How else do you use symbols? I have read all the definitions. I understand the explanations, but the rest of where I am confused can now only be answered by example usages.
