Defining a Class and Instantiating an Object

Ruby Class:

class Person  
  def initialize(name)  
    @name = name  
  end  
  
  def say_hi  
    puts "#{@name} says hi"  
  end  
end  
  
andreas = Person.new("Andreas")  
andreas.say_hi

After writing this code in file create filename with .rb extenstion.
In you command line execute the file:

> ruby example.rb 

Andreas says hi
