Problems in Rails undefined method `map' for #<Contact:0x000000013aa76b48> - ruby-on-rails

Question

I'm putting together a combo box or called the same as a select in rails, I put everything together but it gives me an error that tells me that I have a problem with the map inside the select, I'm using simple_form_for and I'm doing a map inside the collection inside the selector or called in simple_for associatio.
I copy the view and the controller
This view
<h1>HistContact#index</h1>
<p>Find me in app/views/hist_contact/index.html.erb</p>
<%= simple_form_for #histcontact, url:hist_contact_index_path do |f| %>
<% f.association :contact, collection: #contacts.map{|cont| [cont.name , cont.id]}%>
<%f.submit "buscar"%>
<% end %>
<table id = "client_table" class="table table-striped table-sm">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Id</th>
<th>fecha</th
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<% #histcontacts.each do |c|%>
<tr>
<td> <%= c.id %> </td>
<td> <%= c.created_at %></td>
</tr>
<% end %>
</tbody>
</table>
the controller
class HistContactController < ApplicationController
before_action :authenticate_user!
def index
#histcontacts = HistContact.all
#contacts = Contact.all
end
def new
#histcontact = HistContact.new
#contacts = Contact.new
end
def create
#histcontact = HistContact.find(contact_id: params[:contact])
end
private
def contactID(current_user)
client_id = Client.where(user_id: current_user.id)
contact_id = Contact.where(client_id: client_id.ids[0])
return contact_id
end
end
Thank you

According to error, you are trying to map a single object instead of an array of objects. Based on your controller code, the view file you shared is probably new.html.erb. To solve this problem you need do it like this:
def new
#histcontact = HistContact.new
#contacts = Contact.all
end
