I think I had 1.9 on the brain. As we discussed in class, 1.8 is not very consistent when it comes to Strings vs Symbols. Changing those to strings is the right thing to do! Good catch! Absolutely.

It seems the test case for test_add_to_the_metaclass is expecting the array of method names returned from Kernel#singleton_methods to be symbols. However, in 1.8 they are Strings as it is discussed here: http://eigenclass.org/hiki.rb?Changes+in+Ruby+1.9 in the section "Kernel#singleton_methods, Kernel#methods". Is it OK for us to go ahead and change the test case to the 1.8 version? --Garrick West There’s a slight 1.9isim in the Week 3 homework. It seems the test case
