Subject: define_singleton_method(a_symbol,&block)

Hi,

I was wondering what was the idiomatic way to do this:

  class BigDipper
    def little_dipper(a_symbol)
      define_singleton_method(a_symbol) {
        "#{a_symbol} is double-helix"
      }
    end
  end
  

  s_ = BigDipper.new
  s_.little_dipper(:DNA)
  s_.DNA
    => "DNA is a double-helix"

  q_ = BigDipper.new
  q_.respond_to? :DNA
    => false


?

Thanks,

Bill
