Description

Object[] ss = new Object[]

{'hello'}

Object[] is = new Object[]

{new Integer(1)}

println ss.length
// this returns a MethodClosure instead of 1
println is.length
// runtime error: no such property length on Integer

"length" should simply return the length of the array. The first case treats length as a MethodClosure and the second as a property (the property thing hit back again)
