Rails - Feb 2006 - Traversing an object / array?

This is a very basic question but I cannot find the ''right''
answer.
  
  What is the best way to traverse an object / array with ROR.
  
  I need to look at the structure of some of the objects/ arrays but not sure
how to go about it.
  
  I appreciate your assistance.
  
  Thanks
  Frank

For an array:

array.each do |item|
	// stuff with item
end

An object is trickier, they''re not supposed to be traversed like an  
array. Check out ruby-doc.org, the 1.8 reference documentation, the  
interesting methods are in the Object and Module classes
