You spelled it wrong!

Ruby’s approach is the most delightful, I find. elf is an instance of Elf and in elf.health, self is the elf.

Elf is an instance of Class and in Elf.surpass, self is the Elf class itself.

Ruby's irregular syntax drives me crazy. But it is beautiful.

I gotta say as a Python developer I kinda like this compared to thing = Thing()
