I’d like to check whether an object contains one or more children:
if @question.replies.count > 0
// do this
else
// do that
end
however I’d rather not do the db lookups involved in this. Is there a nice efficient way of doing this query?
Just use :counter_cache ( http://asciicasts.com/episodes/23-counter-cache-column )
