Ruby Kernel#load Method

The Ruby Kernel#load method¹:

• Executed at the point where Ruby encounters it in the file.
• Can load files that the names are determined dynamically during the execution of the program.
• Calls to load can also be conditional.
• Giving the load fully qualified path would bypass the load path.
• A call to load loads the file even if it was already loaded, overwriting the things loaded in the previous versions.
