But my confusion was with `Cow` class which is a subclass of `Animal`. and the `Animal` class has the `public instance method` `bark`. Now as `talk` method defined in the top level,why the bare called to `bar` has been denied from the `Cow` class. I might have some wrong conception here I am sure. Could you clarify on that regard? Thanks for showing your interest. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
