Description
ar_result_calculations adds methods to Array for when Array is an ActiveRecord result set. For example:
Product.all.sum(:price)
Product.all.average(:price)
Product.all.regression(:sales_volumn)Will return the sum of the attribute :price from all rows. Note this is not the same as Product.sum(:price) which will create an SQL statement that does the summing.
Methods created on Array
All methods take one parameter (column name).
