rindex(*args) public

Returns the index of the last object in self == to obj.

If a block is given instead of an argument, returns the index of the first object for which the block returns true, starting from the last object.

Returns nil if no match is found.

See also Array#index.

If neither block nor argument is given, an Enumerator is returned instead.

a = [ "a", "b", "b", "b", "c" ]
a.rindex("b")             #=> 3
a.rindex("z")             #=> nil
a.rindex { |x| x == "b" } #=> 3
