rails 中 form_helper 的 Check_box 和 radio_button

Question

I went through the rails documentation of rails, and could not find anywhere that gave me information about check_box or radio_button to deal with the model objects.

    = f.radio_button(:recurring_status, true)
    = f.label :recurring_status, "Yes?"
    = f.radio_button(:recurring_status, false)
    = f.label :recurring_status_false, "No?"

I tried this with the radio_button , but the value is just not passing from the form in the params . Same case with the check_box .

Can someone please explain to me why this is happening, and also why rails has not specified the uses of check_box and radio_button with Model Objects.

Also,

<%= check_box_tag(:pet_dog) %>
<%= label_tag(:pet_dog, "I own a dog") %>
<%= check_box_tag(:pet_cat) %>
<%= label_tag(:pet_cat, "I own a cat") %>

<input id="pet_dog" name="pet_dog" type="checkbox" value="1" />
<label for="pet_dog">I own a dog</label>
<input id="pet_cat" name="pet_cat" type="checkbox" value="1" />
<label for="pet_cat">I own a cat</label>

This is the example given in the offical documentation, both the checkbox have the same value as '1'. It's quite hard to understand what is happening here.
