How to check if an object is iterable in Ruby?

ruby

Solution

For my purposes, let's say iterable is something you can do `.each` to.

You can just ask if this object has this method

def iterable?(object)
  object.respond_to?(:each)
end

Problem

How do I check if an object is iterable in Ruby? That is, I want a method that cleanly checks if an object is iterable, like so: ``` def is_iterable(my_object) .. end ``` I'm really not sure where to start on this short of explicitly naming classes from within the method. Edit: For my purposes, let's say iterable is something you can do .each to.
