In Ruby 2.4, `Fixnum` and `Bignum` were unified into `Integer` and the "bigness" of that integer became an internal implementation detail. Because the koans support some pretty old rubies, we can't make a universal assertion about the class of `Object.new.object_id`, but it always `is_a? Integer`.

I'm not sure whether this project is currently being maintained, but I have a few improvements I'd like to offer. I figured I'd start with this one since it's a one-line change.
