Ruby - Filtering array of hashes based on another array

Viewed 3896

I am trying to filter an array of hashes based on another array. What's the best way to accomplish this? Here are the 2 brutes I've right now:

x=[1,2,3]
y = [{dis:4,as:"hi"},{dis:2,as:"li"}]

1) aa = []
x.each do |a|
  qq = y.select{|k,v| k[:dis]==a}
  aa+=qq unless qq.empty?
end

2) q = []
y.each do |k,v|
  x.each do |ele|
    if k[:dis]==ele
      q << {dis: ele,as: k[:as]}
    end
  end
end 

Here's the output I'm intending:

[{dis:2,as:"li"}]
