Sounds like an Enumerable error.
$ irb
[nil, 1].max

One of your numbers doesn’t have a value, it is nil. Is nill more than
1?
Less than 1? Is it more than 1000? Less than 1000?
It doesn’t make sense to compare nil to a number, so, for example, the
code
“1 < nil” will raise “ArgumentError: comparison of Fixnum with nil
failed”
You need to figure out which parameter was nil, how it got that way, and
what you need to do in this situation.

Changing the name won’t fix the problem in your code.
Post the code for the method (or look to see where your params are
compared)
Sir i have now tried to declare a same method twice with a different
name but the same parameter to both the methods…
Bt i still get that fixnum problem…
i want to know that calling two different name methods in on Model file
works.?
how to resolve that error?

Look at the backtrace and try and figure out (perhaps using the
debugger) what is nil when it shouldn’t be
