Subject: [ruby-core:40686] [ruby-trunk - Feature #5555] rename #include? to #includes?


Issue #5555 has been updated by markus heiler.


I am neutral on it, not pro, not con. But I think a simple alias could suffice here?

It is often a quite general question on english grammar too.

For instance, on class String I was using #starts_with? rather than #start_with?

But I think both should be equivalent.

  "foo".starts_with? 'f' # => true
  "foo".start_with? 'f'  # => true

Feature #5555: rename #include? to #includes?

Shouldn't the #include? method be renamed to #includes? ?
I think this will be closer to correct English and consistent with #has_key? method (not #have_key?).
