Forwardable
module Forwardable
The Forwardable module provides delegation of specified methods to a designated object, using the methods def_delegator and def_delegators.

. You could provide the lookup method record_number(), which simply calls [] on the @records
array, like this:
require 'forwardable' class RecordCollection attr_accessor :records extend Forwardable def_delegator :@records, :[], :record_number end

r = RecordCollection.new r.records = [4,5,6] r.record_number(0) # => 4
