 1. What is an object?
+Everything you manipulate is an object, and the results of those manipulations are themselves objects.
 
 2. What is a variable?
+A reference to an object.
 
 3. What is the difference between an object and a class?
+A class is a way to define methods for objects and is an object itself.
 
 4. What is a String?
+Strings are objects holding sequences of characters.
 
 5. What are three messages that I can send to a string object? Hint: think methods
+length, split, upcase
 
 6. What are two ways of defining a String literal? Bonus: What is the difference between them?
+single quotes = fewer escape sequences, usually used when you don't need something in the quotes to change (no interpolation).
+double quotes = lots of escape sequences and interpolation, ie. "#{some_var} is awesome!" to add some_var to string.

 Sharing Functionality: Inheritance, Modules, and Mixins
 
 1. What is the difference between a Hash and an Array?
+Arrays are indexed by integers while hashes are indexed with objects of any type.
+In a hash, each value has two objects, the index (key) and associated entry.
 
 2. When would you use an Array over a Hash and vice versa?
+You would use an array if you do not need non-integer indexing as arrays are more efficient than hashes.
+Maybe a better way to put it is that sometimes being able to reference values by their keys
+is super handy so you would choose a hash in that case.
 
 3. What is a module? Enumerable is a built in Ruby module, what is it?
+Modules are a way of grouping together methods, classes, and constants.
+They provide namespace and prevent name clashes and support the mixin facility.
+Enumerable is a standard mixin, implementing a bunch of methods in terms of the host class’s
+each method.
 
 4. Can you inherit more than one thing in Ruby? How could you get around this problem?
+A Ruby class has only one direct parent, so Ruby is a single-inheritance language.
+To circumvent this problem, Ruby classes can include the functionality of any number of mixins.
 
 5. What is the difference between a Module and a Class?
+Modules support the mixin facility and prevent name clashes.

  - Chapter 22 The Ruby Language: basic types (symbols), variables and constants
 
 1. What is a symbol?
+A symbol is an identifier corresponding to a string of characters, often a name.
+They cannot be changed, only overwritten.
 
 2. What is the difference between a symbol and a string?
+Symbols are immutable (cannot be changed, same object id) while strings are not.
 
 3. What is a block and how do I call a block?
+A block is a chunk of code enclosed between either braces or the keywords do
+and end. Blocks can take parameters and are called by a method (like they are 
+another parameter passed to a method).
 
 4. How do I pass a block to a method? What is the method signature?
+You just put the code after the invocation of the method. I think a method signature 
+is the name of the method and the paramaters that are required.
 
 5. Where would you use regular expressions?
+Any time you need to match a pattern in a string. Like say you were trying to 
+see if the word "kitten" is in a line of text or if a line starts with "Once", etc.

 2. How would you output "Hello World!" to a file called my_output.txt?
+Here is one way, using irb:
+xabv@V00970630 ~/code/ruby/
+$ irb
+irb(main):001:0> File.open("my_output.txt", "w") do |file|

+my_output.txt
+
+xabv@V00970630 ~/code/ruby/
+$ cat my_output.txt
+Hello World!
 
 3. What is the Directory class and what is it used for?
+Objects of class Dir (directory) are directory streams representing
+directories in the underlying filesystem. They provide many methods
+to manipulate, delete, list, etc. directories and their contents.
 
 4. What is an IO object?
+An IO object is a bidirectional channel between a Ruby program and some
+external resource.
 
 5. What is rake and what is it used for? What is a rake task?
+Rake is a gem that provides capabilities similar to make (you can build
+programs with it) using settings found in rakefiles.
 
+A rake task is a section of code in a rakefile that performs a job.
+It might do a unit test or build a tarball for example. I guess you
+could think of it as one piece of an install for a ruby program.
