I am trying to get hourly counts of orders between different price
ranges from my database. I'm thinking there has got to be a better way
than looping through each record and checking if the created_at time
fits between hour 1, 2, 3, 4, etc of the day and then returning the
count.
Currently I am displaying just a total of the days sales that are
between different dollar amounts this way:
In my controller I grab all orders that are from today and return those
to the view as @orders
In my view I display the number sold that are in a particular price
range by the following helper method:
def number_between_75_and_100_sold
count = 0
for n in @orders
if n.total >= 75 && n.total < 100
count = count + 1
end
end
return count
end
This helper method feels ugly to me. I have 3 others that give me
different order total ranges. Better way?
If I use this same logic to count sales per hour I am going to end up
with 24 more helpers that count those sales for each hour by looking at
created_at times between a range. This is going to be slow, ugly and
lame.
I appreciate any advice.
