ActiveRecord

  1. What is it?
    • explain concept of ORM
    • talk about inheritance
  2. How does it work?
    • explain how it magically creates methods based on column names and makes those available to the Model class
    • explain how it builds SQL from methods like .find, .find_by and .where
  3. Compare this ORM implementation with others, like DataMapper and Ruby Object Mapper
