Returns the zero-based integer index of a specified element, or nil.
With only argument object given, returns the index of the first element element for which object == element:
Example
a = [:foo, 'bar', 2, 'bar'] a.index('bar') # => 1
Returns nil if no such element found.
With only a block given, calls the block with each successive element; returns the index of the first element for which the block returns a truthy value:
Example
a = [:foo, 'bar', 2, 'bar'] a.index {|element| element == 'bar' } # => 1
Returns nil if the block never returns a truthy value.
With neither an argument nor a block given, returns a new Enumerator.
