Subject: Re: Confusion with Ruby's "case/when" block statement

Before understanding the `Case/when` working principal let me clear the 
below which `while` does when it gets its turn.

>> String.===("abc")
=> true
Because "abc" is an instance of `String` class.

Now I tried the below just to check who is whose super class.

>> 10.class
=> Fixnum
>> Fixnum.superclass
=> Integer
>> Integer.superclass
=> Numeric
>> Numeric.superclass
=> Object

Humm. That means the below returns `true` as Fixnum is also the indirect 
subclass of `Numeric`.

>> Numeric.===(10)
=> true

But why then the below outputts contradictory to the above?

>> Numeric.===(Fixnum)
=> false

I might be 100% wrong, In that case please correct me.

Thanks
