Hello Everyone
I am beginner to ruby on rails but lately while working on a Rails Project I stumbled on this anomaly.
I encountered this problem while naming my Rails Model Plural (Alumni),my bad forgot the convention and was amazed to find Table name in the database (supposed to be plural of Model name according to the convention) to be Alumnis.
-- I am beginner to ruby on rails but lately while working on a Rails Project I stumbled on this anomaly.
I encountered this problem while naming my Rails Model Plural (Alumni),my bad forgot the convention and was amazed to find Table name in the database (supposed to be plural of Model name according to the convention) to be Alumnis.
Please have a look at this-
As you can see that for every other word except Alumnus(whose plural is Alumni) and Alumni(which is itself a plural form) pluralize method returns the exact plural word. Is this a bug in the method implementation?
Can someone please also explain how the above Rails convention is implemented i.e. Pluralization of Model Name as Table Name in Database
irb(main):001:0> "woman".pluralize
=> "women"
#Have a look at this one
irb(main):002:0> "alumnus".pluralize
=> "alumnus"
#Have a look at this one
irb(main):003:0> "alumni".pluralize
=> "alumnis"
irb(main):004:0> "cow".pluralize
=> "kine"
irb(main):005:0> "man".pluralize
=> "men"
irb(main):006:0> "cat".pluralize
=> "cats"
irb(main):007:0> "dolphin".pluralize
=> "dolphins"
irb(main):008:0> "dog".pluralize
=> "dogs"
irb(main):009:0> "Tigress".pluralize
=> "Tigresses"

Thanks in Advance
