- //! Returns a `Logical` representing whether `x` is equal to `y`.
- //! @ingroup group-Comparable
- //!
- //! The `equal` function can be called in two different ways. First, it
- //! can be called like a normal function:
- //! @code
- //! equal(x, y)
- //! @endcode
- //!
- //! However, it may also be partially applied to an argument by using
- //! `equal.to`:
- //! @code
- //! equal.to(x)(y) == equal(x, y)
- //! @endcode
- //!
- //! In other words, `equal.to(x)` is a function object that is equivalent
- //! to `partial(equal, x)`. This is provided to enhance the readability of
- //! some constructs, especially when using higher order algorithms.
- //!
- //!
- //! Signature
- //! ---------
- //! Given a Logical `Bool` and two Comparables `A` and `B` that
- //! share a common embedding, the signature is
- //! @f$ \mathtt{equal} : A \times B \to Bool @f$.
- //!
- //! @param x, y
- //! Two objects to compare for equality.
- //!
- //!
- //! Example
- //! -------
- //! @include example/equal.cpp
- //!
- //!
- //! > #### Rationale for the arity of `equal`
- //! > It is a valid question whether `equal` should accept more than 2
- //! > arguments and have semantics matching those of Python's `==`. This
- //! > is not supported right now for the following reasons:
- //! > - It was implemented in the MPL11, but it was not shown to be useful
- //! > so far.
- //! > - It does not make sense for `not_equal` to have an arity of more
- //! > than 2, only `equal` could maybe have those semantics, which would
- //! > break symmetry.
