How do I create a query that sets true if one or more records exist?

I want to create a query like so:

@step1_completed = IF 1 or more records exists return true, e开发者_StackOverflowlse false

---

The exist? method was made for this:

Record.exist?

It will do a query to check if a single record for the table exists and will return true if it does.

---

Assuming record is a model,

@step1_completed = Record.any?

---

How about the following:

@step1_completed = Record.first ? true : false
