I don't know ruby so I may be missing something here, but wouldn't it be better to have the codons as keys and the amino acids as values for the hash? Something like "AAG" => "K", "AAA" => "K" instead of "K" => ["AAA", "AAG"]. That way the lookup is direct and you don't need to scan an array each time.

Unless you actually wanted it to stop scanning on an invalid sequence like "UGA"? That's what the table implied, so I went with that. It also seemed to fit the idea of returning as soon as you know you're done. In hindsight I should probably return behind the switch anyway, at least that's what I'd do in other languages.
