Class TheSource
In: daimoku-server/support.rb
Parent: Object

This class is used to change the Source Code of the Simulation. Normally this is used by the Architect.

The class name should be unique and so that the Players can not instantiate this class.

This class is referenced within the Simulation, so it is instantiable within the Simulation. 

 TheSource.evaluate "class Apple; end"  # creates the Apple class, outside the Simulation, from the inside!
 TheSource.evaluate "apple = Apple.new" # instantiates the Apple class, outside the Simulation, from the inside!
