Hi gurus and nubys,
I just noticed that enumerable#zip just accepts an Array as argument:


>> puts (1..10).zip(21..30)
TypeError: cannot convert Range into Array

I wonder why this happens: would'nt make much more sense if it just
applied to_ary to it's argument?

note that ri 1.8a (I know, utdated) agrees with me:

(Enumerable#zip)
    Converts any arguments to arrays, then merges elements of enumObj
    with corresponding elements from each argument. 

:)
