It could be extended so that negative arguments means dropping from the end: [:hello, :world].drop(-1) # => [:hello] This could especially be interesting for `Lazy#drop`, which would keep a circular buffer of elements before yielding them. (1..6).lazy.drop(-3).each{|x| puts x} # -> prints 1, 2 and 3 Thoughts? -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
