Pronouncing “puts”
A question came up after lecture as to why I pronounced puts the way I did; i.e., I say “put-ess“, instead of just “puts”. Reason: puts really stands for “put string”, and so I say the ’s’ separately for emphasis.
This might seem a little odd, though, as we can use both numerical and String arguments to the puts method. Ignoring this odd fact for now (we’ll explain it away in the future), I hope this helps clear things up.
