In the context of Ruby's object model, what is the primary mechanism for achieving code reuse and polymorphism, and how does it differ fundamentally from classical inheritance?

Composition, where an object contains other objects, delegating tasks to them, which promotes flexibility but doesn't directly facilitate method overriding or polymorphic behavior in the same way as inheritance.

Duck typing, which determines an object's suitability for a role based on its ability to perform certain actions (methods) rather than its explicit type or inheritance hierarchy.

Classical inheritance, where a subclass directly inherits methods and properties from a single superclass, establishing a strict "is-a" relationship and supporting "vertical" code sharing.

Mixins, which allow a class to include behavior from one or more modules, enabling a form of "horizontal" code sharing without the rigid hierarchical constraints of single inheritance.

Q2Domain Verified

Consider the following Ruby code snippet: ```ruby class Parent def greet "Hello from Parent" end end class Child < Parent def greet "Hello from Child" end end obj = Child.new puts obj.greet ``` What is the output of this code, and what Ruby principle does it demonstrate?

"Hello from Parent", demonstrating method chaining and scope resolution.

"Hello from Child", demonstrating method overriding and the principle of dynamic dispatch.

"Hello from Parent", demonstrating method overriding and the concept of polymorphism.

"Hello from Child", demonstrating method delegation and module inclusion.

Q3Domain Verified

In Ruby, what is the significance of the `self` keyword in different contexts, particularly within instance methods, class methods, and blocks?

`self` always refers to the current instance of the object. In class methods, it refers to the class itself, and within blocks, its value is determined by the surrounding scope.

D) `self` refers to the object that is the receiver of the message. In blocks, it always refers to the block's owner.

`self` refers to the current instance of the object within instance methods. Within class methods, it refers to the class itself. In blocks, `self` typically retains the value from the surrounding scope where the block was defined, unless explicitly reboun

`self` always refers to the global scope. In blocks, it refers to the object that yielded to the block.
