Subject: [ruby-core:46234] [ruby-trunk - Feature #6697] [PATCH] Add Kernel#Symbol conversion method like String(), Array() etc.


Issue #6697 has been updated by sorah (Shota Fukumori).


I can't think any use cases of Kernel.#Symbol, could you tell me the use case?

(Why Kernel.#Symbol makes sense?)

For consistency, it seems to make sense to add a Kernel#Symbol helper.

This change would not break any existing code and it provides a more consistent interface.

Thoughts?
