=== <tt>=~</tt> operator
<tt>=~</tt> is Ruby's basic pattern-matching operator. When one operand is a
regular expression and is a string (this operator is equivalently defined by
Regexp and String). If a match is found, the operator returns index of first
match in string, otherwise it returns +nil+.
regular expression and the other is a string then the regular expression is
used as a pattern to match against the string. (This operator is equivalently
defined by Regexp and String so the order of String and Regexp do not matter.
Other classes may have different implementations of <tt>=~</tt>.) If a match
is found, the operator returns index of first match in string, otherwise it
returns +nil+.
