Hi all, please i have an array in my rails application (for example; $x = [23, how, this,56, you, nice]) I want to store it in a mysql database as a SINGLE RECORD with a name . thus i can get each array with its name and still be able to access the array like an array i.e $x[0] # => 23 $x[1] # => how .....and so on I don''t know what DATA TYPE to use and how to do
