Ruby Language Monkey Patching in Ruby Changing a method with parameters
Example
You can access the exact same context as the method you override.
class Boat
def initialize(name)
@name = name
end
def name
@name
end
end
puts Boat.new("Doat").name # => "Doat"
class Boat
def name
"⛵ #{@name} ⛵"
end
end
puts Boat.new("Moat").name # => "⛵ Moat ⛵"
