Adding to the Array class' instance methods:

class Array
def my_method
end
end

Array.instance_methods.grep /my_meth/ # => [:my_method]

Adding to the Array class itself:

class Array
# More than one idiom in use here..
def self.my_other_method
end
end

Array.methods.grep /my_oth/ # [:my_other_method]
