  #   that are not explicitly permitted are found. The values can be <tt>:log</tt> to

  # == Strong \Parameters
  #
  # It provides an interface for protecting attributes from end-user
  # assignment. This makes Action Controller parameters forbidden
  # to be used in Active Model mass assignment until they have been
  # whitelisted.
  #
  # In addition, parameters can be marked as required and flow through a
  # predefined raise/rescue flow to end up as a 400 Bad Request with no
  # effort.
  #
  #   class PeopleController < ActionController::Base
  #     # Using "Person.create(params[:person])" would raise an
  #     # ActiveModel::ForbiddenAttributes exception because it'd
  #     # be using mass assignment without an explicit permit step.
  #     # This is the recommended form:
  #     def create
  #       Person.create(person_params)
  #     end
  #
  #     # This will pass with flying colors as long as there's a person key in the
  #     # parameters, otherwise it'll raise an ActionController::MissingParameter
  #     # exception, which will get caught by ActionController::Base and turned
  #     # into a 400 Bad Request reply.

  #       # just a good pattern since you'll be able to reuse the same permit
  #       # list between create and update. Also, you can specialize this method
  #       # with per-user checking of permissible attributes.

  # In order to use <tt>accepts_nested_attributes_for</tt> with Strong \Parameters, you
  # will need to specify which nested attributes should be whitelisted.
