Subject: Defining methods outside classes

Hi all,

I've got a little curiosity about defining methods. As far as I know (and
maybe I'm wrong) functions doesn't exist in Ruby... right? Ruby only have
methods.

However, I can do this:

<code>
#!/usr/bin/env ruby

def test
        puts "This is a test"
end

test
</code>

If test is really a method... what class it belongs to? Or is it a function
and I've missed something?

Thank you.

PD: OK, I know, I'm more worried about conceptual point of view that I'd must
be ;-)
