Also unlike Go, an interface may implement a method.
These methods are not implemented by structs which implement that interface.
When a struct is wrapped in an interface that has implemented a method
with the same name as one implemented by this struct, only the method
implemented on the interface is called.
```v
struct Cat {}
interface Adoptable {}
fn (c Cat) speak() string {
return 'meow!'
}
fn (a Adoptable) speak() string {
return 'adopt me!'
}
fn (a Adoptable) adopt() ?&Cat {
if a is Cat {
return a
} else {
return error('This cannot be adopted.')
}
}
fn new_adoptable() Adoptable {
return Cat{}
}
fn main() {
adoptable := new_adoptable()
println(adoptable.speak()) // adopt me!
cat := adoptable.adopt() or { return }
println(cat.speak()) // meow!
}
```
