modules_questions.markdown
  • What do you know about modules already? If little, what would you guess modules are all about?
  • Golf and basketball both use a ball. But if you're on a basketball court and ask for "the ball," no one is going to throw you a golf ball. Why? If you were as dumb as a computer, why would a golfd ball be an acceptable response?
  • You've learned about the object model and method lookups. What would the imapct be of injecting an additional ancestor into a class' lookup chain?

Modules allow for grouping subsets of code, ranging from variables all the way to classes.

This wouldn't occur because there is an implicit understanding that a golf ball doesn't belong in basketball. With a computer, if there is two defined Balls, there would be no way to differentiate the two.

Im not sure.
