“Interfaces & Abstract Classes unnecessary in Ruby” --> Can someone explain?

Question

I\'m trying to wrap my head around Ruby, and one thing I\'m struggling with is the lack of interface/abstract class support. From googling about, the response I continuously see

Answer 1

I am also Ruby starter. From my understanding, there is a closer rival for abstract classes in ruby. that is module. you can't create any instances of module but you can include with another class. So a target class will get the whole functionality of parent

  module Log
    def write
      //blah
    end
  end

  class EventLog
    include Log

    def Prepare
    end
  end

In statically typed languages like java/C# , Interfaces enforce the classes to have all the methods at compile time. Since Ruby is dynamic, there is no meaning in it.

For more clarity, check these posts why dynamic languages don't require interfaces..
