Hi everyone, I''d like some help to understand this method: def self.authenticate(email, submitted_password) user = find_by_email(email) return nil if user.nil? return user if user.has_password?(submitted_password) # Don''t understand why it doesn''t return user instead of nil # since ''user = find_by_email(email)'' was the last
