Numeric#eql?

(untyped) -> bool

eql?(other) → true or false

static VALUE
num_eql(VALUE x, VALUE y)
{
    if (TYPE(x) != TYPE(y)) return Qfalse;

    if (RB_BIGNUM_TYPE_P(x)) {
        return rb_big_eql(x, y);
    }

    return rb_equal(x, y);
}

Returns true if self and other are the same type and have equal values.

Of the Core and Standard Library classes, only Integer, Rational, and Complex use this implementation.

Examples:

Example

1.eql?(1)              # => true
1.eql?(1.0)            # => false
1.eql?(Rational(1, 1)) # => false
1.eql?(Complex(1, 0))  # => false

Method eql? is different from == in that eql? requires matching types, while == does not.
