Method: Range#==

Defined in:

range.c

#==(other) ⇒ Boolean

Returns true if and only if:

• other is a range.

• other.begin == self.begin.

• other.end == self.end.

• other.exclude_end? == self.exclude_end?.

Otherwise returns false.

r = (1..5)
r == (1..5)                # => true
r = Range.new(1, 5)
r == 'foo'                 # => false
r == (2..5)                # => false
r == (1..4)                # => false
r == (1...5)               # => false
r == Range.new(1, 5, true) # => false

Note that even with the same argument, the return values of #== and #eql? can differ:

(1..2) == (1..2.0)   # => true
(1..2).eql? (1..2.0) # => false
