For an array << is the append method. It adds an item to the end of the array.

So in your specific case when you call setup with a block the Proc object made from the block is stored in @setups.

Note: as sbeam points out in his comment, because << is a method, it can do different things depending on the type of object it is called on e.g. concatenation on strings, bit shifting on integers etc.

See the "ary << obj → ary" documentation.
