Subject: "Gtk::Window#show" notation

I am reading the tutorial in Ruby-gnome2 and I see:

"The third line calls Gtk::Window#show to display the window we just 
created:"

to describe:

"window.show"

Please excuse my ignorance, but I do not know the use of the '#' 
character here. I've searched around quite a bit. I see the syntax is 
commonly used, but I cannot locate an explanation of it. The only 
explanation I see for the '#' character is that everything following is 
a comment.

Can someone point me to documentation that describes the use of '#' 
other than as the comment character? Or perhaps tell me what I should 
have read before this tutorial?
