null_equal	If TRUE, consider that null values are equal. Overridden by strict.
strict	If TRUE, do not allow similar DataType comparison. Overrides null_equal.

Value

A logical value

Examples

library(polars)

as_polars_series(1:4)$equals(as_polars_series(1:4))

#> [1] TRUE

# names are different
as_polars_series(1:4, "bob")$equals(as_polars_series(1:4))

#> [1] FALSE

# nulls are different by default
as_polars_series(c(1:4, NA))$equals(as_polars_series(c(1:4, NA)))

#> [1] FALSE

as_polars_series(c(1:4, NA))$equals(as_polars_series(c(1:4, NA)), null_equal = TRUE)

#> [1] TRUE

# datatypes are ignored by default
as_polars_series(1:4)$cast(pl$Int16)$equals(as_polars_series(1:4))

#> [1] FALSE

as_polars_series(1:4)$cast(pl$Int16)$equals(as_polars_series(1:4), strict = TRUE)

#> [1] FALSE
