Remove Modules

Hi,
How is it possible to remove modules from memory
In some files I have something like:
module MyModule
  module A
  end
end

and in some point I want to delete that module to be not available in
other files

Hi,

You can use the (private) method Module#remove_const. However, this will
not delete the actual module but only the specific constant.

Why? That seems like a design smell to me.

Object.send(:remove_const, :MyModule)
