Hello Everyone,

Why does this function behave this way?

class Confuse
  def confusion=(obj)
    @obj = obj
    return 'expected answer'
  end
end
c = Confuse.new 
c.confusion = 'this should be wrong' 
 
This returns 'this should be wrong'.

I am reading Programming Ruby 1.9 & 2.0 by Dave Thomas with Chad Fowler and Andy Hunt. This problem was mentioned in page 129, but their explanation did not really make sense.
