That's a really odd example, Sunil.

What are you trying to accomplish?

By chaining two methods together, you're calling them both, and ruby  
is providing you with just this response.

if you want to group methods, then you should most likely use a class  
or a module.

Let us know your requirements a little more succinctly and we'll try  
to provide a nice solution to your problem.

Julian.
