what method_function does in ruby

Question

I am working in live project and understanding the existing code. like

Module Rating
  def current_rating 
     # some code here
  end
end

And called this method in included class. How it works? Actually I know about module but not used much. Say I am beginner for Module

Check this [module_function](http://apidock.com/ruby/Module/module_function) It will clear you to understand what you are looking for. — Gagan Gami, Oct 31 '14 at 05:32

module_function

Module methods that are declared as module_function will create copies of themselves as private instance methods in the class that includes the Module:
