Subject: About top-level method

Hello!

I'm reading a book named "Teach yourself Ruby".
In chapter 2, it says that top-level methods are Object's private instance
methods.
But my test shows different results.

In irb, I tested it like the following.

def my_f
  p "my_f"
end

Object.my_f #=> print "my_f"
obj = Object.new
obj.my_f #=> print "my_f"

Then, my_f is an instance method, and a class method as well?

Can anyone help me understand it?
