Signature

concat(string)

The preferred method of outputting text in your views is to use the ‘<%= “text” %>` eRuby syntax. The regular puts and print methods do not operate as expected in an eRuby code block. If you absolutely must output text within a non-output code block (i.e., `<% %>`), you can use the concat method.

“‘ <% concat “hello” %> is equivalent to <%= “hello” %>

<%

unless signed_in?
  concat link_to("Sign In", action: :sign_in)
end

%>

is equivalent to

<% unless signed_in? %>

<%= link_to "Sign In", action: :sign_in %>

<% end %> “‘
