Ember - this.get(one from an array)

So I've got two versions of this question, one a little simplified, one a bit more like what I'm trying to achieve.

  1. I have a "student" model and a "score" model. The "student" has many "scores". On the "student" controller, I'm trying to set a computed property "score" equal to a specified one of these "scores".

Is there some way I can pass in another argument (eg, so as return the first in the array)?

In controllers/student

    score: function(){
                return this.get('scores', 1);
           }.property('scores')

  1. An extra dimension here. The "score" model also belongs To an "objective" model. Can I set the "score" property on my "student" controller depending on the id of a chosen objective?

    -------------------------------------------Update----------------------------------------------------------

I'm afraid I'm still stuck! I've been trying to figure out a little more but to no avail. I'll outline a little code to hopefully make my issue clearer.

My models

student

scores:   DS.hasMany('score', {async: true}),  
name:     DS.attr('string')

objective

name:     DS.attr('string'),
scores:   DS.hasMany('score', {async : true})

score

scoreResult:  DS.attr('number'),
objective:    DS.belongsTo('objective', {async: true}),
student:      DS.belongsTo('student', {async: true})
  1. So what I'd really like to do is in the "student" controller set the "score" property to the "scoreResult" integer, filtering by the value of the objective_id in the score model.

So elsewhere, I'll be able choose an objective, gets its objective_id, and then use this to set the student controller's "score" to that for the appropriate objective.

I hope this makes sense. I'm really struggling to find any tutorial/guidance for this, and struggling to figure it out for myself. I'd really appreciate any help.

To answer the question of extra arguments. You can add other arguments by using something like this

score : Ember.computed('first','second','third', function(){
      //now use all three properties to do anything here
      // you can use any number of properties
      return this.get('model').filterBy('first',A);
});

Another syntax but with same meaning will be

score : function(){

}.property('first','second','third')
