# A method object is a description of the method, it's name etc
#
# But the code that the method represents, the binary, is held as an array
# in one of these.
#
# The BinaryCode is really just a name to make sure that when we call a method
# it is really the code we call.

  # As on the other hand has no encoding (yet) it is close enough
