Sorry if these questions have come up before, but google searching hasn’t
pulled up anything for me.

  1. How do you compare types? i.e.

w = nil
x = “foo” if w != nil # still assigns foo to x

  1. What is the official irc network and channel for ruby? (#ruby-lang on
    what network?)

  2. I need to take an ip and convert it to base10. Are there base
    conversion methods in Ruby? (I’ve found some addons and exstensions, but I
    need something that’s already built in if possible)
