Module type Eq.EQ

Module type for types with an equality predicate and operators.

type t

The type of elements to check for equality.

val equal : t -> t -> bool

equal a b is true if and only if a and b are equal. This should satisfy the following properties:

  • Reflexivity: equal a a = true
  • Symmetry: equal a b is equivalent to equal b a
  • Transitivity: if equal a b = true and equal b c = true, then equal a c = true
val (=) : t -> t -> bool

Operator alias of equal.

val (<>) : t -> t -> bool

Negation of operator (=).
