It just seems to indicate that you could take a look at things and do it better.

Yes, this is a start that got you to this point, but sometimes, it's best to 
step back, look at what other people have to say, make sense of it, say "ohhhh, 
so I can do this then" and move on.

Dynamically creating methods when you should at least be thinking, "I can just 
have a data structure to be the day that the method can handle" seems like 2 
steps away from what you should be doing if you're seriously considering making 
a proper stab at your problem.

Why dynamically create methods in the first place?  Why do you want to do that 
and why do you think it's a good idea?

Cheers.
