Changing <head> in a view

Rails
1

Given an application layout like

Test <%= stylesheet_link_tag 'test.css' %> 
<%= javascript_include_tag 'some_js', :cache => true, :charset =>

‘utf8’ %>

<%= yield %>

and a controller, say

app/controllers/root_controller.rb:
class RootController < ApplicationController
def index

end
end

and a view file
app/views/root/index.html.erb

is it then possible to include a javascript file in the head section
of the resulting html, which is exclusive to the RootController’s
index view?

Forgive me if you find this question trivial. I’m learning.

Yep, using a content_for call:
