As described in section 5.2.1 GRAPE searches for a method "universal" if the method that is send to an instance is neither found in the instance's class nor in its superclasses. If the method
Be careful: only parameterless methods can be called via universal, any argument passed to the original method is lost. Therefore if the method method needs parameters on the class it is send to this won't work. Because the GRAPE function doesn't know if a method needs parameters it will always try to use "universal" if the original method wasn't found.
The behaviour of the GRAPE function can be influenced by calling one of the methods
