How does Ruby resolve method conflicts when multiple modules are included in a class?
AModules cannot have methods with the same name
BRuby throws an error on method conflicts
CThe last included module's methods override earlier ones
DThe first included module's methods take precedence
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand Ruby's method lookup order

    Ruby searches methods starting from the class, then modules in reverse order of inclusion.
  2. Step 2: Identify conflict resolution

    The last included module's methods override those from previously included modules.
  3. Final Answer:

    The last included module's methods override earlier ones -> Option C
  4. Quick Check:

    Last included module wins in conflicts [OK]
Quick Trick: Last included module overrides previous ones [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Assuming Ruby throws errors on conflicts
  • Thinking first included module always wins
  • Believing modules cannot share method names
