When coding ruby, the uncerscore way of writing methods is prefered;
for classes CamelCase is preferred.
A good startingpoint for this is:

I do believe 'def my_method' is preferred.

Hi baklarz,

Welcome to ruby

Ruby preffers underscore_methods.

For more informations, RubyGarden[1] is a good ressource. Here[2] is
an article that explains the different styles.


Cheers,
