Check if a saved user''s name is admin
Hi all,
I have a question about this method in my User model:
# Returns true for the (saved) user called "admin"
def is_the_administrator
true if save and name == "admin"
end
The method returns true if the user''s name is admin. However, I only want to
return true if the state of the object is "saved", so I call the save method
first.

Should I use exclamation marks for methods that change associations?
...s_no_role ''moderator'', user
Model.accepts_role ''class moderator'', user
With the new dynamic methods, we give the user-like model some flexibility:
user.is_moderator_of group --> sets user to have role "moderator"
for object group.
user.is_administrator --> sets user to have role
"administrator" not really tied to any object.
user.is_eligible_for award --> sets user to have role "eligible"
for object award.
In the discussions I''ve read on proper use of exclamation marks, some
say it should only be used...
