- (Boolean) ==(other) - (Boolean) equal?(other) - (Boolean) eql?(other)
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: it is used to determine object identity (that is, a.equal?(b) iff a is the same object as b).
The eql? method returns true if obj and anObject have the same value. Used by Hash to test members for equality. For objects of class Object, eql? is synonymous with ==. Subclasses normally continue this tradition, 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

- (Module) undef_method(symbol)
Prevents the current class from responding to calls to the named method. Contrast this with remove_method, which deletes the method from the particular class; Ruby will still search superclasses and mixed-in modules for a possible receiver.
class Parent
def hello
puts "In parent"
end
end
class Child < Parent
def hello
puts "In child"
end
end
c = Child.new
c.hello
class Child
remove_method :hello # remove from child, still in parent
end
c.hello
class Child
undef_method :hello # prevent any calls to 'hello'
end
c.hello
produces:
In child In parent prog.rb:23: undefined method `hello' for #<Child:0x401b3bb4> (NoMethodError)
