# object-attributes-lab

## Objectives

1. Define ruby classes.
2. Define methods that read from and write to instance variables.
3. Create object properties using methods and instance variables.

## Overview

This lab is all about using instance variables within a class to create methods that represent attributes or properties of an object.

## Instructions

Get started with this lab by opening it with `learn open` and running `learn`.

## `Dog` and `lib/dog.rb`

### Give a Dog a Name

You'll be teaching `Dog` about their names through two methods, `#name`, and `#name=` that read and write to a corresponding instance variable `@name`.

### Give a Dog a Breed

You'll be teaching `Dog` about their breed through two methods, `#breed`, and `#breed=` that read and write to a corresponding instance variable `@breed`.

## `Person` and `lib/person.rb`

### Give a Person a Name

You'll be teaching `Person` about their names through two methods, `#name`, and `#name=` that read and write to a corresponding instance variable `@name`.

### Give a Person a Job

You'll be teaching `Person` about their jobs through two methods, `#job`, and `#job=` that read and write to a corresponding instance variable `@job`.

When you're done submit the lab with `learn submit`
