=== Methods
Class methods (also known as module functions, see Module#module_function) may
be called directly.
For method definition documentation see the {syntax documentation for
methods}[rdoc-ref:doc/syntax/methods.rdoc].
Class methods may be called directly. (This is slightly confusing, but a
method on a module is often called a "class method" instead of a "module
method". See also Module#module_function which can convert an instance method
into a class method.)
When a class method references a constant it uses the same rules as referencing
it outside the method as the scope is the same.
