Usage

You can pass the values as an object, too;

dongdong = Animal({ type: 'cat', foobar: 'dfjh' })

Methods can also be defined later;

Animal.method('jump', function(animal){
  console.log('%s is jumping!!', animal.name)
})

To extend an existing struct:

Cat = Animal.extend({
  type: 'cat',
  grrr: grrr
})

function grrr(cat) {
  console.log('grrrrrr')
}

dongdong = Cat('dongdong', 2) // notice how 'type' property got eleminated from parameter order.
