In this case it could be guessed (how would I implement #concat?, etc) but it never hurts to grep the sources (which I did, BTW :) Really, if you're looking for some info on Xyz#method, it takes but a minute to look at the end of xyz.c, locate the appropriate rb_define_method call and then check the function. The source code is *really* readable.
