I'm new to ruby and I'm playing around with the IRB.
I found that I can list methods of an object using the ".methods" method, and that self.methods sort of give me what I want (similar to Python's dir(builtins)?), but how can I find the methods of a library/module I've loaded via include and require?
irb(main):036:0* self.methods

I'm used to python, where I use the dir() function to accomplish the same thing:
>>> dir()
['__builtins__', '__doc__', '__name__', '__package__']
