---------------
Methods are similar to *functions* in procedural languages like
'C'. The key difference between a method and a function is that a
method is "bound" to (attached to) an object, so instead of
operating solely on "external" data that is passed in to it via
arguments, it may also operate on the attributes of the object to
which is bound.

"of the object to which is bound." -> of the object to which it is bound.
