def equal ( x1 , x2 )

Summary

Extended Summary

Unlike numpy.equal, this comparison is performed by first stripping whitespace characters from the end of the string. This behavior is provided for backward-compatibility with numarray.

Parameters

x1, x2 : array_like of str or unicode: Input arrays of the same shape.

Returns

out : ndarray: Output array of bools.

Examples

import numpy as np
y = "aa "
x = "aa"
