i created a table with the following schema in code
DB.create_table :Pokemon do
primary_key :id
String :first_name
String :last_name
String :email
String :zipcode
String :company_name
String :google_profile
String :skype
String :phone
String :about
String :linkedin_profile_url
String :company_url
column :needs , 'Text[]'
column :offering , 'Text[]'
end
for needs and offering i am inserting a string array with following code
pokes=DB[:Pokemon];
off=['hello1' , 'hello2']
nee= ['need1' , 'need2']
pokes.insert(:first_name => 'abcd' ,:last_name => 'mehandiratta', :offering => off , :needs => nee)
when i run it i am getting an error
PG::Error: ERROR: column "offering" is of type text[] but expression is of type record (Sequel::DatabaseError)
LINE 1: ...fering", "needs") VALUES ('abcd', 'mehandiratta', ('hello1',...

HINT: You will need to rewrite or cast the expression.
