When one operand is a regular expression and is a string (this operator is equivalently defined by Regexp and String). If a match is found [...]" "and is a string" seems to have be missing a word or two....would it make sense to change that second sentence to something like the following?: "When one operand is a regular expression and the other is a string, then the regexp is used as a pattern to match against the string. (This operator is equivalently defined by Regexp and String, and order in which the operands appear does not matter.) If a match is found [...]" -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
