Does anyone know of a programmatic way to find the definition? I was looking
for this the other day.
If a type responds to a method that it inherits or gets through inclusion of
a module, method_defined? returns true. Is there another method that only
returns true for the actual "definer"?

I suppose you could iterate through the ancestors recursively and find the
highest-level ancestor where method_defined? is true.

Thanks,
