To check my new understanding, @instance_variable in that example is a variable of MyClass, the object. Unlike things like @@static_class_attribute (that are also attributes of MyClass, the object), @instance_variable is not accessible by objects created by MyClass.new method. Is that right? Experiments with IRB seem to confirm. Alex
