Yes 1.+(5), 5.-(1), 1.*(2). Ruby is probably the most object oriented language out there, besides Scala(which borrows from Ruby. Which borrowed form Smalltalk). Keeps syntax rules to a minimum. Where is something like Java 1 + 1 is a special syntax case on primitive types(primitive types in hindsight were a terrible decision). In Ruby methods can be called with spaces and without parenthesis. So 1.+(5) is the same as 1 + 5.
