eigenclass is somewhat of an invention by rubyists, the "correct" name is singleton class. you can see that throughout ruby' interface, eg FooClass.singleton_class, define_singleton_method, etc.

weaksauce: It's one of those things where you can explain not enough or explain too much. I was hoping when explaining it to henk that it was more than surface level but not too complex. But I think you could just consider it a class method and not give it any further thought.
<adam12>
The fact that it's backed by an object is what makes it kind of interesting, I suppose.
<adam12>
ox1eef: Agreed. I think some people have called it a metaclass too... which probably doesn't help.

adam12: yeah, metaclass was another name that was used quite frequently. thing is, neither of those shed any insight while i think singleton class is pretty accurate.
