| Test is succeeded if //expected// and //expression// are of same type and have equal values. For C++ objects, the overloaded operator == is used. String values are compared with operator ''eq'' . polymake `big' objects may not be tested this way; use ''compare_objects'' as described below. | Test is succeeded if //expected// and //expression// are of same type and have equal values.
