# define a class
class Box
   # constructor method
   def initialize(w,h)
      @width, @height = w, h

   # instance method by default it is public

# create an object

# call instance methods

# try to call protected or methods

ruby to s method

ruby

#!/usr/bin/ruby -w

class Box
   # constructor method
   def initialize(w,h)

   end
end

# create an object

# to_s method will be called in reference of string automatically.
puts "String representation of box is : #{box}"

instance method

ruby

#!/usr/bin/ruby -w

# define a class
class Box
   # constructor method
   def initialize(w,h)
      @width, @height = w, h
   end
   # instance method

# create an object

setter method

ruby

#!/usr/bin/ruby -w

# define a class
class Box
   # constructor method
   def initialize(w,h)
      @width, @height = w, h
   end

   # accessor methods

   # setter methods
   def setWidth=(value)

end

# create an object
box = Box.new(10, 20)

# use setter methods
box.setWidth = 30
box.setHeight = 50

# use accessor methods
x = box.getWidth()
y = box.getHeight()

puts "Width of the box is : #{x}"
puts "Height of the box is : #{y}"

accessor and setter methods

ruby

#!/usr/bin/ruby -w

# define a class
class Box
   # constructor method
   def initialize(w,h)
      @width, @height = w, h
   end

   # accessor methods
   def printWidth

   end

   def printHeight
      @height

end

# create an object
box = Box.new(10, 20)

# use accessor methods
x = box.printWidth()
y = box.printHeight()

puts "Width of the box is : #{x}"
puts "Height of the box is : #{y}"

ruby create object

ruby

#!/usr/bin/ruby

class Sample
   def hello
      puts "Hello Ruby!"
   end
end

# Now using above class to create objects
object = Sample. new
object.hello

ruby end statement

ruby

#!/usr/bin/ruby

}

ruby begin statement

ruby

#!/usr/bin/ruby

ruby simple document

ruby

#!/usr/bin/ruby -w

print <<EOF
   This is the first way of creating
   here document ie. multiple line string.
EOF

print <<"EOF";                # same as above
   This is the second way of creating
   here document ie. multiple line string.
EOF

print <<`EOC`                 # execute commands
	echo hi there
	echo lo there
EOC

print <<"foo", <<"bar"  # you can stack them
	I said foo.
foo
	I said bar.
