# Developer notes::
# * Based on /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/facets-1.8.54/lib/facets/core/module/attr_tester.rb
# * Hey Thomas, don't you think Module#attr_tester should only create the read-only a? method and have another method that creates the writer (like there how we have attr_reader, _writer, and _accessor?) ? "tester" does not imply "setter" in my mind...
# * I'm going to rename this one to bool_attr_accessor, which calls both bool_attr_reader and bool_attr_writer
# * Then you also have the option to use bool_attr_reader and bool_attr_writer separately if you so desire.
# * Other changes made:
# * Changed it so that if you call a!(false) it would actually set @a to false rather than leaving it unchanged. (I assume that was a bug.)

#
# bool_attr_reader :a
#
# is equivalent to

# def a?
# @a ? true : @a

#
# Example:
# class Foo
# def set_it
# @a = true
# end
# end
# x = Foo.new
# x.a? # => false
# x.set_it
# x.a? # => true

#
# is equivalent to
#
# def a!(switch=Exception)

# end
# end
#
# This setter method can either be used to set it directly to true or false or to toggle it.
#
# Examples:
# x = Klass.new
# x.a! true # sets @a to true
# x.a! # toggles @a, so that it ends up being false
# x.a! # toggles @a, so that it ends up being true
# x.a! false # sets @a to false

# Observation: You can also the normal bool_attr_accessor in conjunction with class << self.
# The methods generated seem to *behave* in the same way. Both techniques allow you to query the class, C.a?
# The only difference is in which *variables* are use to store the state:
# * class << self and the normal bool_attr_accessor:
# Stores the state in an instance variable for the *class*: @a
# * mbool_attr_accessor:
# Stores the state in a *class* variable: @@a
#
# Can someone explain to me the difference between class variables and instance variables of a class?
# It seems silly (confusing even!) to have both of them!
#
# My best explanation is that the fact that we can even *have* instance variables of a class does *not* mean it's a good idea
# to use them. It simply means that Matz made the language with as few arbitrary restrictions as possible. He made it
# technically *possible* to do a lot of things that it is probably not good practice to do... And one of those things is
# using instance variables of classes to store state information for that class.
#
# What do you think class variables are for? Exactly that! There's a *reason* we have both @a and @@a variables -- to
# *differentiate* between the two kinds of variables and keep programmers sane. So please don't blur the distinction and
# use the @a-type variable to do the job that @@a-type variables are for.
#
# Or am I missing something here?
