    Works even better in Ruby, as the code as given is valid, you just need to monkey patch length:

    #!/usr/bin/env ruby
    
    module DayLength
      def length
        if ["Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"].include? self
          "24 hours"
        else
          super
        end
      end
    end
    
    class String
      prepend DayLength
    end
    
    day = "Monday"
    
    x = day.length
    
    print(x)

    It could be Ruby; puts is more common, but there is a print. With some silly context, the answer could even be correct:

    #!/usr/bin/env ruby
    
    module DayLength
      def length
        if ["Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"].include? self
          "24 hours"
        else
          super
        end
      end
    end
    
    class String
      prepend DayLength
    end
    
    day = "Monday"
    
    x = day.length
    
    print(x)

    The “free shareware” thing is kind of back. I’ve been noticing more and more games producing demos; check out Steam Next fest, for example.

    I also remember playing a ton of games from a CD. I had a Mac at the time, but it was “dos compatible”, which meant it had a 486 in addition to the Mac processor at the time, so you could switch over into dos, though you could only allocate half the ram to it.

    We ended up installing Windows 95 to play a lot of the games, which ran great on the available 4 MB of RAM.
