Wouldn’t it make sense to have also to_json and from_json for Iterators? As far as I can see, it’s required to convert them into an array before converting them into JSON.

[image] wonderix: On the other hand, I would have never expected such a method in the Array class because it never produces an Array instance. Yes, this could maybe moved to Enumerable. Not sure if it improves awareness of the method, but at least it’s not tied to Array.
