Is equal

Description

The = operator takes two operands and compares them for equality. If the operands are numeric then the numeric type conversion rules are applied before the comparision is done. If the operands are of char type or of string type then the char/string type conversion rules are applied before the comparision is done. The result of this operation is of boolean type, and is true if the operands are equal, and false otherwise.

Example

   23 =   23    results in true
  -23 =  -23    results in true
   23 = 23.0    results in true
 23.0 =   23    results in true
   23 =  -23    results in false
    2 =    3    results in false
    3 =    2    results in false
