class Array

  # The `arrange` method produces appropriate ranges from the objects in the array.
  #
  # Examples
  #
  #     [1,2,3,6,7,8].arrange  #=> [1..3, 6..8]
  #
  #     [10..15, 16..20, 21, 22].arrange  #=> [10..22]
  #
  # Assumes inclusive ranges (ie. 1..4) and range.first <= range.last.
  #
  # Works with integers, dates and strings. However, all the objects in the array must
  # be of the same class.
  #
