numpy.equal() in Python

numpy.equal(arr1, arr2, out = None, where = True, casting = 'same_kind', order = 'K', dtype = None, ufunc 'not_equal') : This logical function checks for arr1 == arr2 element-wise. Parameters : 

arr1 : [array_like]Input array arr2 : [array_like]Input array out : [ndarray, optional]Output array with same dimensions as Input array, placed with result. **kwargs : allows you to pass keyword variable length of argument to a function. It is used when we want to handle named argument in a function. where : [array_like, optional]True value means to calculate the universal functions(ufunc) at that position, False value means to leave the value in the output alone.

Return : 

Returns arr1 == arr2 element-wise

  Code 1 : 

# Python Program illustrating # numpy.equal() method import numpy as geek a = geek.equal([1., 2.], [1., 3.]) print("Check to be Equal : \n", a, "\n") b = geek.equal([1, 2], [[1, 3],[1, 4]]) print("Check to be Equal : \n", b, "\n") 

Output : 

Check to be Equal : [ True False] Check to be Equal : [[ True False] [ True False]] 

  Code 2 : Comparing data-type using .equal() function 

# Python Program illustrating # numpy.equal() method import numpy as geek # Here we will compare Complex values with int a = geek.array([0 + 1j, 2]) b = geek.array([1,2]) d = geek.equal(a, b) print("Comparing complex with int using .equal() : ", d) 

Output : 

Comparing complex with int using .equal() : [False True]

  Code 3 : 

# Python Program illustrating # numpy.not_equal() method import numpy as geek # Here we will compare Float with int values a = geek.array([1.1, 1]) b = geek.array([1, 2]) d = geek.not_equal(a, b) print("\nComparing float with int using .not_equal() : ", d) 

Output :

Comparing float with int using .not_equal() : [ True True]

Time complexity : 

equal has time complexity of O(N). Where k is the length of list which need to be added.
