Rails - Oct 2006 - sum method

Hello

in my Faq model i added a method
   def calculate_score
     score_faq = 0
     self.votes.each do |t|
       score_faq += t.score
     end
    self.score= score_faq
   end

this method working well but i would like to use sum
   def calculate_score
     self.score = self.votes.sum(&:score)
   end

But this new method was not working

Can u explain me why ?

Thanks

Try:

self.votes.sum(''score'')

(For future reference, it is useful if you can post the actual error
message that you get, rather than just telling us that it doesn''t
work.)
