Subject: code block which allows dynamical numbers of arguments

Hi,
let's pretend I have a codeblock like this:

#begin
test = lambda {|c,d| @check = c if object.status == d}
test.call("GoodBoy",12)
#end

So you see if object.status is 12 @check will be set to "Goodboy".

But how can I make the block test to allow more than 2 arguments and 
that any further argument will be takes as further conditional statement?

Like:

test = lambda {|c,d,e| @check = c if object.status == d or object.status 
== e}
test.call("GoodBoy",24,11)

or with 4 arguments:

test = lambda {|c,d,e,f| @check = c if object.status == d or 
object.status == e or object.status == f}
test.call("GoodBoy",82,31,40)

so you see what I mean?

This should just happen automatically so I wanna call test sometimes 
with 2, but sometimes also with more arguments and it shall be extended 
as shown above.

Is there any way in ruby to do so?
