I am running ruby 1.8.6 patchlevel 111 on Windows XP(same problem with
OS X). I am wondering why each_char doesn't work for me? I looked at
the documentation and it shows 'each_char', however when I look at the
results of class.instance_methods.sort, each_char is nowhere to be
found. Any explanations to why I can't use it? Thanks

---------------------------------------------------------- Class:
String
A +String+ object holds and manipulates an arbitrary sequence of
bytes, typically representing characters. String objects may be
created using +String::new+ or as literals.
Because of aliasing issues, users of strings should be aware of
the
methods that modify the contents of a +String+ object. Typically,
methods with names ending in ``!'' modify their receiver, while
those without a ``!'' return a new +String+. However, there are
exceptions, such as +String#[]=+.
