convert a block into an object.





# This object is called a proc (procedure). 

# procs preserve their execution environment and pack it along with them. 

# The lambda method is one way to create a proc object. 





prc = lambda { |name| puts "Hello, " + name }

prc.call "Matz!" # => Hello, Matz!
