The Math module’s methods are provided as both ‘module’ and ‘instance’ methods and can therefore be accessed either by mixing Math into a class or by accessing the module methods ‘from the outside’ by
You can add the methods of a module to a specific object (rather than to an entire class) using the extend method
Module methods (those methods specifically preceded by the module name) can help to protect your code from accidental name conflicts.
One way of avoiding ambiguity when you use similarly named methods from multiple modules is to ‘alias’ those methods. An alias is a copy of an existing method with a new name.
