Builtins::identical(3) Return whether two values are identical.

SYNOPSIS

Bool identical( a x, a y )

ARGUMENTS

x First value

y Second value

DESCRIPTION

Check if two values are identical. This is stronger than equality - this tests whether two values are stored at the same memory location. In other words, it tests whether modifying the contents of x would also modify the contents of y


 a = (5,6);
 b = (3,a.snd);                        
 c = a;
 d = (5,6);
 test = identical(b,a); // false                       
 test2 = identical(b.snd,a.snd); //true
 test3 = identical(c,a); // true
 test4 = identical(d,a); // false

Of course, equal(a,d) would be true
