What are method arguments?

Before we can get into the code examples, let's first walk through what method arguments are. Let's begin with a real-world example:

Imagine that you have a machine that makes baseball bats. The workflow for the bat making process would be as follows:

1. The raw wood is placed in the machine.
2. From there, the machine takes the wood, cuts, and polishes it.
3. Lastly, it finishes off by giving the output as the finished baseball bats from the machine.

So let's see how this analogy applies to the methods in Ruby:
