Jokes are delivered with the intent of entertainment and with the desired effect of laughter. Punchlines are typically used to end a sentence with humor. An easy way to create a joke is to think of a subject and a scenario where the subject executes an unexpected and related action. To deliver punchlines effectively, the action should associate with the subject's opposite.

Let's use the subject, "a good mother" to practice creating a joke with an effective punchline. We will keep in mind that the subject, "a good mother" should execute an action associated with its opposite. To me, the opposite of "a good mother" is "a bad father." Now think of an action a bad father would do. Since mothers and fathers are sometimes found in marriage, the scenario of the joke I will make is the introduction to a marriage proposal. Here is the joke and punchline I came up with:

Boyfriend: "I think you would make a good wife because I can tell you would make a good mother."
Girlfriend: "Of course I would make a good

Creating a dictionary class
[This exercise was adapted from TestFirst.org.]

Create a Dictionary class. When you create a new dictionary (such as one for English), it should be an empty hash. Then, you should be able to add words and their definition by calling a method and passing in a hash as an argument. You should also be able to list all of the words and their definitions in alphabetical order with another method. Finally, you should be able to search the dictionary by passing in the first few letters of a word and returning all of the words that start with those letters, along with their definitions.

class Dictionary

    attr_accessor :entries
