Write a method to every possible class

Ruby
1

I have a function like this:

def fun(ob)
return a_modified_version_of_ob
end

Of course, if I have an object instance ‘obis’, I need to call it
like
fun(obis)
I want to be able to call like obis.fun
And I want to be able to do that all object types
Possible?

Thx…

You can define fun method under Object class like this:
class Object
def fun
# p self
return a_modified_version_of_self
end
end
