p.86-90 Strings (Strings section in Chapter 6 Standard Types)
1. What is an object?
+An object is a representation in memory of a specific concept or thing that the Ruby interpreter knows about.
+
+- An object is an instance of a class and is an entity that has properties and behaviors; represents data.
2. What is a variable?
+A variable is a name for a location in memory. It can contain, or point to, any type of object.
+
+- A variable is a reference to an object (labeled container)
3. What is the difference between an object and a class?
+An object is an instance of a class, or a specific thing of that class's type in memory. The class is the specifics that are common to all things of that type. The classification of a concept or a thing is a class. A specific thing or concept of a class's type in memory is an object. For example: All books have titles (Class). This book's title is "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" (Object).
+
+- A class is a blueprint for an object. The class is the cookie cutter, objects are the cookies.
4. What is a String?
+A string is how Ruby understands text. It is a collection of characters (Bytes), and can be created by making an instance of the String class (String.new) or as a string literal ("",'', %Q[]).
+
+- An object that holds a collection of characters and provides methods for manipulating these characters.
5. What are three messages that I can send to a string object? Hint: think methods
+chomp! - removes newline characters, or the specified characters, from the end of a string
+strip! - removes leading or trailing whitespace from a string
+split - returns an array of strings made up of the original string separated on whitespace or the specified characters or regexp
+
+- .concat, .upcase, .chomp
6. What are two ways of defining a String literal? Bonus: What is the difference between the two?
+<<<<<<< HEAD
+
+- double and single quotes. double quotes allow variable inerpolation e.g. "#{foobar}"
+=======
+Single quotes ex: '' and Double quotes ex: "". The single quotes allow for 2 escape characters: \' and \\ . The double quoted string literal allows for many different escaped special characters (like \n is a line break) and allows for string interpolation, or the injection of evaluated Ruby code into the string ex: "Hello #{my_name}". The single quoted string takes up much less memory than a double quoted string with interpolation. Without interpolation, both are about the same.

Sharing Functionality: Inheritance, Modules, and Mixins
1. What is the difference between a Hash and an Array?
+An array is an ordered list of items that are referenced by their index (order), a hash is a collection of items that can be referenced by a key and have no order.
+
+* Both have keys and values. The keys in an array must be integers and
+must be sequential starting at 0. The keys in a hash can be any
+object. Hashes are also called associative arrays and/or dictionaries
2. When would you use an Array over a Hash and vice versa?
+When the items have an inherent order I would use an array, when I want to reference the items in my collection by a name or key and their order does not matter I would use a hash.
+
+* Arrays are great for storing things in a particular order;
+a hash is great for retrieving things based on something
+other than order. If you don't know the position of an
+element in an array, but you know the name of an element,
+you still have to enumerate through all of the elements to find
+a particular element with an array. You can only locate an element by
+position with an array. With a hash, you could retrieve the
+desired element using the name, instead of the position index. The reason you
+can do this is that a hash accepts any object as a key, unlike an array that
+only accepts an integer representing an's elements position in the array.
3. What is a module? Enumerable is a built in Ruby module, what is it?
+A module is a way to group code that you can use across multiple classes. Enumerable is a Ruby module that provides collection functionality; iteration, searching, and sorting. It requires an implementation of the each method.
+
+* A module allows you to organize code into namespaces. It also
+allows classes to mixin code rather than inherit code.
4. Can you inherit more than one thing in Ruby? How could you get around this problem?
+No, multiple inheritance is not allowed in Ruby. You can include multiple modules if you wanted to mix-in different functionality into your code. Code that is related with a hierarchical nature should be subclassed (inherited). A class can only have 1 direct parent, but can have lots of ancestors.
+
+* No. You use modules. If you could inherit from more than one class you would
+have the diamond problem. If a class inherited from two classes that both defined a method named
+hello(), which superclass's method would be called if you called hello() on the child class?
+Modules allow you to re-use code without inheritance which circumvents the problem
+of multiple inheritance.
5. What is the difference between a Module and a Class?
+<<<<<<< HEAD
+
+* "Classes are about objects; modules are about functions." (stole this from StackOverflow)
+* You can't inherit from a module
+* You can't instantiate a module
+* Modules can't have variables, but both modules and classes can have constants and methods
+* Modules can add instance methods to a class
+* You use modules for mixins and classes for inheritance and/or instantiation
+* Modules let you create namespaces
+* Modules are like libraries in that you can use across multiple classes
+=======
+A class can be instantiated into an object, a module cannot. A module is code that can be used across many classes.

Questions:
1. What is method_missing and how can it be used?
+Ruby tries to lookup methods along the inheritance chain by checking
+each ancestor of an object to see if it contains a definition for the
+method called. You can define a method called method_missing on any object
+that will be called if there is no matching definition for the called
+method. You can use this like Rails' find_by_* methods which use the method_missing
+method to perform call other functions if the method name begins with "find_by_". For instance,
+if I call "find_by_first_name" the missing_method function would call something like
+find(first_name). In this way, you can respond to methods you haven't even defined, since
+the method_missing is called when there is no matching definition and the method_missing function has a
+reference to the method name and arguments that are being looked up in the inheritance chain when it was called.
+
2. What is and Eigenclass and what is it used for? Where Do Singleton methods live?
+Singleton methods are defined at the object, not the class, level. For instance,
+if I have a class called "Pizza" and two instances of Pizza called "pepperoni" and "mushroom", I
+could define a Singleton method by defining a method called "spicy?" on the pepperoni instance,
+not the Pizza class. If I try to call mushroom.spicy? Ruby would not find the method
+definition, but pepperoni.spicy? would work. Ruby does this by replacing the Pizza class object
+in the inheritance chain with an Eigenclass, which is an anonymous class that contains all of
+the code from Pizza plus the new method spicy? . When I define a new method on the pepperoni instance,
+the pepperoni instance stops inheriting from the Pizza class object and starts inheriting from a new
+class that is made specially for the pepperoni object.
+
3. When would you use DuckTypeing? How would you use it to improve your code?
+Duck typing means types don't matter. What matters is whether the object responds to a message. How that
+message is responded to doesn't really matter either. Polymorphism is awesome, but it means that the objects
+must share a common inheritance. Duck typing allows you to pass in any object as long as it responds_to?
+the message you are sending. For instance, rather than checking the type of an object returned by a method
+you can simply check whether the object returned by the method responds_to? the messages you will be sending
+and only require the object to meet the minimum requirements. The method can then be changed to pass back
+whatever (something that inherits from a totally different class, for instance) and as long as the object
+continues to respond to the messages that are sent to it, its all good.
+
4. What is the difference between a class method and an instance method? What is the difference between instance_eval and class_eval?
+You call instance methods on the instance object, and you call class methods on the class object.
+You can pass a string or block to the class_eval method on a Class instance and it will add to the class's definition.
+You can pass a string or block to an object's instance_eval method and it will add it to the object's definition (not shared by other objects from with the same class)
+If you pass a string or block to an object's instance_eval method and the object happens to be a Class, you are essentially creating a class method (like class_eval)
+
+
5. What is the difference between a singleton class and a singleton method?
+Singleton classes only allow once instance to be instantiated. This automatically happens
+when you define a singleton method (a method on the object itself, not the class). In question 2,
+pepperoni is a singleton class single it has the singleton method spicy?
