Subject: Re: When are attr_reader type  methods called?

class A
  call_this ("hello world")
  def call_this(arg)
    p arg
  end
end

gives me

NoMethodError: undefined method `call_this' for A:Class
        from (irb):3 

So you're obviously doing something more than just what you posted -
what's in the ...?

class A
   attr_reader :monkeys
end

is roughly equivalent to writing:

A = Class.new
A.define_method :monkeys {
	instance_variable_get(:@monkeys)
}

Is that what you're asking? Try posting a short piece of code with
actual and expected outputs.
