Function std.math.approxEqual
Computes whether a values is approximately equal to a reference value, admitting a maximum relative difference, and a maximum absolute difference.
bool approxEqual(T, U, V)
(
T value,
U reference,
V maxRelDiff = 0.01,
V maxAbsDiff = 1e-05
);

Parameters
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| value | Value to compare. |
| reference | Reference value. |
| maxRelDiff | Maximum allowable difference relative to reference.
Setting to 0.0 disables this check. Defaults to 1e-2. |
| maxAbsDiff | Maximum absolute difference. This is mainly usefull
for comparing values to zero. Setting to 0.0 disables this check.
Defaults to 1e-5. |
Returns
true if value is approximately equal to reference under
either criterium. It is sufficient, when value satisfies
one of the two criteria.
If one item is a range, and the other is a single value, then
the result is the logical and-ing of calling approxEqual on
each element of the ranged item against the single item. If
both items are ranges, then approxEqual returns true if
and only if the ranges have the same number of elements and if
approxEqual evaluates to true for each pair of elements.
