Name Rascal/Expressions/Values/Value/Equal

Synopsis Equal operator on values.

Syntax Exp1 == Exp2

Types

Exp1	Exp2	Exp1 == Exp2
value	value	bool

Description Yields true if both arguments are identical and false otherwise.

Examples Introduce two variables X, Y and Z and force them to be of type value:

rascal>value X = "abc";
value: "abc"
rascal>value Y = "abc";
value: "abc"
rascal>value Z = 3.14;
value: 3.14

Now compare X and Y for equality:

rascal>X == Y;
bool: true

and X and Z:

rascal>X == Z;
bool: false
