is that right? is there an idiom in Ruby to do something like
if 3.in([3,2,1])
or
if 3.in [3,2,1]
The include? way is the usual way. Hal Fulton at one point proposed an
in or in? method that would essentially be:
class Object
def in?(collection)
collection.include?(self)
end
end
but I don't think it's on the radar for being added.

Hm... wouldn't that be handy...
i just sort of think that, if you ask me, "have you been to [Hawaii,
China, France]", i probably should be able to look at each one and tell
you an answer of yes or no, instead of asking [Hawaii, China, France] to
tell whether they have seen me.
