This is a Ruby tree! It shows every object from the Ruby Programming Language in a tree format.
# Gem::Specification.eql? (from ruby core) ### Implementation from Object --- obj == other -> true or false obj.equal?(other) -> true or false obj.eql?(other) -> true or false --- Equality --- At the Object level, #== returns `true` only if `obj` and `other` are the same object. Typically, this method is overridden in descendant classes to provide class-specific meaning. Unlike #==, the #equal? method should never be overridden by subclasses as it is used to determine object identity (that is, `a.equal?(b)` if and only if `a` is the same object as `b`): obj = "a" other = obj.dup obj == other #=> true obj.equal? other #=> false obj.equal? obj #=> true The #eql? method returns `true` if `obj` and `other` refer to the same hash key. This is used by Hash to test members for equality. For any pair of objects where #eql? returns `true`, the #hash value of both objects must be equal. So any subclass that overrides #eql? should also override #hash appropriately. For objects of class Object, #eql? is synonymous with #==. Subclasses normally continue this tradition by aliasing #eql? to their overridden #== method, but there are exceptions. Numeric types, for example, perform type conversion across #==, but not across #eql?, so: 1 == 1.0 #=> true 1.eql? 1.0 #=> false
