Subject: [ruby-dev:49961] [Ruby trunk Feature#13067][Closed] TrueClass, FalseClass to provide `===` to match truthy/falsy values.

Issue #13067 has been updated by Yukihiro Matsumoto.

Status changed from Open to Closed

Compatibility issue was bigger than I expected.  I withdraw this proposal.

Feature #13067: TrueClass,FalseClass to provide `===` to match truthy/falsy values.
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/13067#change-62575

* Author: Yukihiro Matsumoto
* Status: Closed
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: Yukihiro Matsumoto
* Target version: 
----------------------------------------
I propose to make `TrueClass`, `FalseClass` to provide `===` method to match truthy values (`TrueClass`), and falsy values (`FalseClass`), so that we can use true and false for case pattern matching.  And we can pick truthy values using `grep` e.g. `ary.grep(true)`.

Matz.
