it is the name of a key in the params hash (check your development.log to see what params you are receiving). In your example below you are checking that the params hash contains a key "person" (an error will be raised if not) and that value is a hash where the keys name and age are permitted. If you use the standard rails methods for building your form (i.e. form_for and f.text_field etc rather than text_field_tag) then rails uses the name of the model class so the argument to require will also be the name of the class > The second question - is it necessary to give the same name for private > method def person_params as the name of (person_params) for db update? > not quite sure what you mean by that.
