# Function unequal
|
||
|
|
||
|
Test whether two values are unequal.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The function tests whether the relative difference between x and y is
|
||
|
larger than the configured epsilon. The function cannot be used to compare
|
||
|
values smaller than approximately 2.22e-16.
|
||
|
|
||
|
For matrices, the function is evaluated element wise.
|
||
|
In case of complex numbers, x.re must unequal y.re, or x.im must unequal y.im.
|
||
|
Strings are compared by their numerical value.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Values `null` and `undefined` are compared strictly, thus `null` is unequal
|
||
|
with everything except `null`, and `undefined` is unequal with everything
|
||
|
except `undefined`.
|
||
|
|
||

|
## Syntax
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
math.unequal(x, y)
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|

## Examples
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
math.unequal(2 + 2, 3) // returns true
|
||
|
math.unequal(2 + 2, 4) // returns false
|
||
|
|
||
|
const a = math.unit('50 cm')
|
||
|
const b = math.unit('5 m')
|
||
|
math.unequal(a, b) // returns false
|
||
|
|
||
|
const c = [2, 5, 1]
|
||
|
const d = [2, 7, 1]
|
||
|
|
||
|
math.unequal(c, d) // returns [false, true, false]
|
||
|
math.deepEqual(c, d) // returns false
|
||
|
|
||
|
math.unequal(0, null) // returns true
|
||
|
```
