Hi Rubyists!
I'm quite new to Ruby/Rails thing, so please be patient with me :)
-------- (skip to next -------- if you want to quickly see the
problem)
I am learning by creating something like timetable application (like
in school). There are days 1-5 and lessons 1-8.
I have to db tables, subjects, which is the list of subjects, and
subject_lessons, which is assocation of a subject to a particular day
and lesson. It's a one-to-many relationship, because one subject can
be assigned to more lessons, but on one lesson there could be only one
subject.
Now I've been playing with select and collection_select, and I found
out, that I can set value by specifying an object and a method. Pretty
cool for static tables, but this is kinda more dynamic. I have loops
to generate a table, and each lesson should have a select box.
--------
So I created a new class, called timetable, and I would like to create
methods like 1_1, 1_1=, 1_2, 1_2= - getters and setters for each
lesson of each day.
By the way, the timetable has a result set from active record as a
private variable, and I turned it into hash, so that I could access it
by @subject_lessons['1_1'] etc.
In PHP, there's a __call method, which would do something like this:
function __call($function, $arguments)
{
$this->subject_lessons[$function] = $arguments[0];
}
So I need something like this in Ruby. Hope someone will help me :)
Thank you guys very much! :)

By the way Ruby is beautiful but it is pretty different from PHP (I'm
working in PHP for like 4 years, and in Ruby for like few days)
