The 3 gets converted to float, like when you say

I think you can't add methods to Python builtin classes, I think you
can do it with Ruby.

You mean like
'[1,2,3]'.__len__()
That gets you the length of the string, which is what one would
expect, calling the __len__() method on a string. The same works
for an array:
