# == The :as and :object options
#
# By default <tt>ActionView::Partials::PartialRenderer</tt> has its object in a local variable with the same
# name as the template. So, given
#
# <%= render :partial => "contract" %>
#
# within contract we'll get <tt>@contract</tt> in the local variable +contract+, as if we had written
#
# <%= render :partial => "contract", :locals => { :contract => @contract } %>
#
# With the <tt>:as</tt> option we can specify a different name for said local variable. For example, if we
# wanted it to be +agreement+ instead of +contract+ we'd do:
#
# <%= render :partial => "contract", :as => 'agreement' %>
#
# The <tt>:object</tt> option can be used to directly specify which object is rendered into the partial;
# useful when the template's object is elsewhere, in a different ivar or in a local variable for instance.
#
# Revisiting a previous example we could have written this code:
# By default <tt>ActionView::Partials::PartialRenderer</tt> doesn't have any local variables.
# The <tt>:object</tt> option can be used to pass an object to the partial. For instance:
#
# <%= render :partial => "account", :object => @buyer %>
#
# <% @advertisements.each do |ad| %>
# <%= render :partial => "ad", :object => ad %>
# <% end %>
# would provide the +@buyer+ object to the partial, available under the local variable +account+ and is
# equivalent to:
#
# The <tt>:object</tt> and <tt>:as</tt> options can be used together.
# <%= render :partial => "account", :locals => { :account => @buyer } %>
#
# With the <tt>:as</tt> option we can specify a different name for said local variable. For example, if we
# wanted it to be +user+ instead of +account+ we'd do:
#
# <%= render :partial => "account", :object => @buyer, :as => 'user' %>
#
# This is equivalent to
#
# <%= render :partial => "account", :locals => { :user => @buyer } %>
