Instance Public methods
Removes the first element of self and returns it (shifting all
other elements down by one). Returns nil if the array is
empty.
If a number n is given, returns an array of the first
n elements (or less) just like array.slice!(0, n)
does. With ary containing only the remainder elements, not
including what was shifted to new_ary. See also #unshift for the opposite effect.
