Wtf? [].methods lists equal? because equal? is defined by Object and is as 
such available to be called on all objects including arrays. It is not listed 
in the docs of Array because it is defined by Object, not Array, and is not 
redefined by Array either. You can perfectly well call equal? on an array and 
it will behave like the docs for Object#equal? say it will.

HTH,
Sebastian
