I tend to prefer code like: @class.enrolled_students.each do |student| student.name end
as Philip mentioned. Enrolled students, if I understand your model(s) correctly, are just a specialized set of students. Not dropped_students, or withdrawn_students, or waitlisted_students, or students_on_hiatus, but those currently enrolled in the class. The ".each do |call it whatever|" gives you the chance to map the 'enrolled_students' back to their source, and pretty much anyone reading the code will make the leap (however small) that 'name' is an attribute or method of the 'student' class. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
