 Greetings Alex,

*Overriding the metohd in a module*

save this snippet of  code as *sample.rb* file

module Sample
def display
  puts "Inside a mosdule"
  end
end

*write another file test.rb *

require 'sample'

class Test
  include Sample
  def display
     puts "Inside the class"
    end
end

Test.new.display  # OUTPUT : Inside the class

See here *display* method in the *class Test overrides  *the *display*method in
*Module Sample

*
