Returns an integer identifier for obj. The same number will be
returned on all calls to id for a
given object, and no two active objects will share an id. Object#object_id is a different
concept from the :name notation, which returns the symbol id of name. Replaces the deprecated
Object#id.
/*
* call-seq:
* obj.hash => fixnum
*
* Generates a <code>Fixnum</code> hash value for this object. This
* function must have the property that <code>a.eql?(b)</code> implies
* <code>a.hash == b.hash</code>. The hash value is used by class
* <code>Hash</code>. Any hash value that exceeds the capacity of a
* <code>Fixnum</code> will be truncated before being used.
