How to retrieve values from multidimentional array using where

Question

I'm passing a variable

numbers = ["one", "two", ["three", "four"], "five"]

to a query in my model: Modelname.where(number: numbers ) but I only get retrieved objects with number attr number value equal to: "one", "two", "five".

How to get the "three" and "four" object ?

This is how: numbers = ["one","two","three","four","five"]. — vee

Use flatten

numbers = ["one","two",["three","four"],"five"]

some_variable = numbers.flatten
=> ["one", "two", "three", "four", "five"]

Modelname.where(number: some_variable)
