nuby question: question marks in method names

E

Edwin Eyan Moragas

Hi Guys,

it's a bit hard to search for answers to this question so here goes.

i've noticed methods that return booleans have a signature which looks like:
object.something?

in the course of looking for answers, seems like ? is part of the
method, ie, 'something?'
and this is the preferred way saying that something is returning a
boolean value.

1) is there any way to do this automatically?
class X
attr :some_bool
def some_bool?
@some_bool
end
end

2) any tricks you might want to share?
