# The Inflector transforms words from singular to plural, class names to table names, modularized class names to ones without,
# and class names to foreign keys. The default inflections for pluralization, singularization, and uncountable words are kept
# in inflections.rb.
#
# The Rails core team has stated patches for the inflections library will not be accepted
# in order to avoid breaking legacy applications which may be relying on errant inflections.
# If you discover an incorrect inflection and require it for your application, you'll need
# to correct it yourself (explained below).
module Inflector

# Returns the plural form of the word in the string.
#
# Examples:
# "post".pluralize # => "posts"
# "octopus".pluralize # => "octopi"
# "sheep".pluralize # => "sheep"
# "words".pluralize # => "words"
# "CamelOctopus".pluralize # => "CamelOctopi"

# The reverse of +pluralize+, returns the singular form of a word in a string.
#
# Examples:
# "posts".singularize # => "post"
# "octopi".singularize # => "octopus"
# "sheep".singularize # => "sheep"
# "word".singularize # => "word"
# "CamelOctopi".singularize # => "CamelOctopus"

# By default, +camelize+ converts strings to UpperCamelCase. If the argument to +camelize+
# is set to <tt>:lower</tt> then +camelize+ produces lowerCamelCase.
#
# +camelize+ will also convert '/' to '::' which is useful for converting paths to namespaces.
#
# Examples:
# "active_model".camelize # => "ActiveModel"
# "active_model".camelize(:lower) # => "activeModel"
# "active_model/errors".camelize # => "ActiveModel::Errors"
# "active_model/errors".camelize(:lower) # => "activeModel::Errors"
#
# As a rule of thumb you can think of +camelize+ as the inverse of +underscore+,
# though there are cases where that does not hold:
#
# "SSLError".underscore.camelize # => "SslError"

#
