# Declare a controller method as a helper. For example, the following
# makes the +current_user+ controller method available to the view:
# class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
# helper_method :current_user, :logged_in?
#
# def current_user
# @current_user ||= User.find_by_id(session[:user])
# end
#
# def logged_in?
# current_user != nil
# end
# end
#
# In a view:
# <% if logged_in? -%>Welcome, <%= current_user.name %><% end -%>
#
# ==== Parameters
# * <tt>method[, method]</tt> - A name or names of a method on the controller
# to be made available on the view.

# The +helper+ class method can take a series of helper module names, a block, or both.
#
# ==== Parameters
# * <tt>*args</tt> - Module, Symbol, String, :all
# * <tt>block</tt> - A block defining helper methods
#
# ==== Examples
# When the argument is a module it will be included directly in the template class.
# helper FooHelper # => includes FooHelper
#
# When the argument is a string or symbol, the method will provide the "_helper" suffix, require the file
# and include the module in the template class. The second form illustrates how to include custom helpers
# when working with namespaced controllers, or other cases where the file containing the helper definition is not
# in one of Rails' standard load paths:
# helper :foo # => requires 'foo_helper' and includes FooHelper
# helper 'resources/foo' # => requires 'resources/foo_helper' and includes Resources::FooHelper
#
# Additionally, the +helper+ class method can receive and evaluate a block, making the methods defined available
# to the template.
#
# # One line
# helper { def hello() "Hello, world!" end }
#
# # Multi-line
# helper do
# def foo(bar)
# "#{bar} is the very best"
# end
# end
#
# Finally, all the above styles can be mixed together, and the +helper+ method can be invoked with a mix of
# +symbols+, +strings+, +modules+ and blocks.
#
# helper(:three, BlindHelper) { def mice() 'mice' end }
#

# Returns a list of modules, normalized from the acceptable kinds of

# String or Symbol:: :FooBar or "FooBar" becomes "foo_bar_helper",
# and "foo_bar_helper.rb" is loaded using require_dependency.
#
# Module:: No further processing
#
# After loading the appropriate files, the corresponding modules
# are returned.
#
# ==== Parameters
# * <tt>args</tt> - An array of helpers
#
# ==== Returns
# * <tt>Array</tt> - A normalized list of modules for the list of
# helpers provided.
