instance method `humanize`

Ruby on Rails 4.0.13

Since v3.0.20

Compare with:

humanize()

Capitalizes the first word, turns underscores into spaces, and strips ‘_id’. Like titleize, this is meant for creating pretty output.

'employee_salary'.humanize # => "Employee salary"
'author_id'.humanize       # => "Author"
