# config/initializers/pick_first.rb in a rails app
class Object

  # The pick_first function is a replacement for statements like users_value.present? ? users_value : default_value
  # which using pick first can be replaced with pick_first users_value, default_value
  # This is particularly helpful when you start getting into selecting the first out of three or more
  # available values.
  #
  # pick_first "x", "y", "z" # => "x"
  # pick_first nil, "y", "z" # => "y"
