deep-equal <sup>
</sup>
Node's assert.deepEqual() algorithm as a standalone module, that also works in browser environments.
It mirrors the robustness of node's own assert.deepEqual and is robust against later builtin modification.
example
jsvar equal = require('deep-equal'); console.dir([ equal( { a : [ 2, 3 ], b : [ 4 ] }, { a : [ 2, 3 ], b : [ 4 ] } ), equal( { x : 5, y : [6] }, { x : 5, y : 6 } ) ]);
methods
jsvar deepEqual = require('deep-equal')
deepEqual(a, b, opts)
Compare objects a and b, returning whether they are equal according to a recursive equality algorithm.
If opts.strict is true, use strict equality (===) to compare leaf nodes.
The default is to use coercive equality (==) because that's how assert.deepEqual() works by default.
