Comprehension Questions

Question	Answer
Describe in your own words what the Model is doing in Rails	The model is the portion of the code that runs all non-display/route related calculations. This helps keep the views clean and free of algorithmic logic.
Describe in your own words what the Controller is doing in Rails	The controller is what handles all operations that occur when a request is made to the server.
Describe in your own words what the View is doing in Rails	The view is the template for which the data from the request can be displayed in.
Describe an edge-case controller test you wrote
What is the purpose of using strong params? (i.e. the params method in the controller)	Strong params allow you to ensure that any object being passed through your controller has the necessary primary structure and only parameters that you allow within that structure. This also allows you to call params in a convenient way within controller methods.
How are Rails migrations related to Rails models?	Migrations are the "commits" of your model. This allows you establish new data in your schema.
Describe one area of Rails that are still unclear on	I couldn't figure out the error with marking a task as complete. I referenced other classmates code and I can't figure out what would cause the "param is missing or the value is empty: task" error that is presented when you attempt to mark a task complete. This must be something with how I'm calling the route or an issue with my strong params, but I couldn't quite figure out where the issue is.

You never initialize task_params so this always fails.

This is an example of how you might create the strong params:

def task_params
    return params.require(:task).permit(:id, :name, :description, :completed_at)
  end

you would do this at the bottom of the file, not inside create
