Attr_accessor and reader and writer convert it to normal Methods style!

Ruby
#1

Hello,

How can i express the attributes methods using normal method styles (the
long coding way) to define them?

attr_accessor :name
attr_writer :name
attr_reader :legs, :arms

My own try is below. If I’m wrong, then correct it for me by re-typing
it.

My answer is:

def name=(name)
@name = name
end
def name=(legs,arms)
@name = legs, arms
end

def name
@name
end

Thank you!

These are the equivalent of…

attr_accessor :name

def name= value
@name = value
end

def name
@name
end

attr_writer :name

def name= value
@name = value
end

attr_reader :legs, :arms

def legs
@legs
end

def arms
@arms
end
