Wait, I explain my problem.
In C++ I would have been able to to this:

void function();
function();
void function() {
  cout<<"The function has been executed"
}

And it would still print "The function has been executed"

In ruby instead if I do this:

def method; end

method

def method
  print ('The method has been executed')
end

it just prints me nothing; I think it has something to do with ruby's 
dynamic definitions.

Just how to achieve the same thing in ruby? (summoning a function that 
is declared later in the code)
