== multimethod

Methods

==(a:Any, b:Any): Always false. Other == method implementations should compare types they understand. If none of them can handle the comparison, objects are considered non-equal.
Returns
false

Compare types. Implemented as sameness comparison.

Example

type T1; type T2; T1==T2  # false

==(a:UserDefinedMethod, b:UserDefinedMethod)

Compare closures. Implemented as sameness comparison.

Example

F make_closure() { F(x) x + 1 }; make_closure()      == make_closure()       # false - different objects
F make_closure() { F(x) x + 1 }; make_closure().ip() == make_closure().ip()  # true - same code
f = F(x) x +1; f == f  # true - same instance

==(a:Real, b:Real): Compare floating point numbers. Using this operator/function is not recommended.

==(a:Bool, b:Bool): Compare booleans

==(a:Str, b:Str): Compare strings

==(a:Int, b:Int): Equality comparison

==(a:NormalTypeInstance, b:NormalTypeInstance) Source: stdlib.ngs:820

Equality test for normal type instances: must be of same type and have same fields and their values

Returns

Bool

Example

type T
t1 = T()
t1.a = 1
t2 = T()
t2.a = 1
echo(t1 == t2)  # Outputs: true

==(a:Set, b:Set) Source: stdlib.ngs:2226: Undocumented

==(a:Null, b:Null) Source: stdlib.ngs:2798: Compare to null
Returns
true

==(a:Arr, b:Arr) Source: stdlib.ngs:2922: Arrays equality test. True if arrays are of the same length and all elements are equal (==)
Returns
Bool

==(a:Hash, b:Hash) Source: stdlib.ngs:3661: Compare two Hashes. Hashes must have same keys with same values in same order to return true. Both hashes must not be modified during comparison. This was not tested.
Returns
Bool

==(b1:Box, b2:Box) Source: stdlib.ngs:4378

Compare boxes. Empty boxes and boxes with same content are considered to be equal.

Returns

Bool

Example

EmptyBox() == EmptyBox()
EmptyBox() != FullBox(1)
FullBox(1) == FullBox(1)
FullBox(1) != FullBox(2)

==(a:Time, b:Time) Source: stdlib.ngs:8244: Undocumented

==(a:AWS::RouteBox, b:AWS::RouteBox)internal

Internal method. Please do not use.

Example

# TODO: example

==(a:AWS::IpPermBox, b:AWS::IpPermBox)internal: Internal method. Please do not use.

==(a:_RouteBox, b:_RouteBox)internal

Internal method. Please do not use.

Example

# TODO: example

==(a:_IpPermBox, b:_IpPermBox)internal: Internal method. Please do not use.
