Module Overview
Ruby is a smart, functional, and object-oriented programming language that blends the best features of scripting power with user-friendly syntax. In this module, we’ll dive into OOP in Ruby with hands-on practice using interactive exercises and illustrations. We'll start by creating and managing Ruby objects. Next, we’ll explore Ruby methods and blocks, essential tools in Ruby programming. Finally, we'll delve into Ruby classes and how they are used to implement OOP principles.

Ruby OOP (Object-Oriented Programming)

## Methods

**Methods** are an object’s behavior.Objects have methods, allowing us to do interesting stuff with them. An object’s methods are things that the object can do.


Think about a person, like a friend. We can ask this person for their name (call a method), and they’ll tell us (return it to us). Their name is a piece of knowledge that this person has, and the ability to tell it to us (respond to our question) is a behavior (method) they have.
