# Two arrays are considered equal if 
(1they contain the same number of elements, and 
(2each element is equal to the corresponding element in the other array (compare with Object#==).

# Compare these arrays with ==

myArray1 = "full"40"yes" ]
myArray2 = ["part"23"no"]
myArray3 = "full"40"yes" ]

myArray2 == myArray2 # => true
myArray1 == myArray3 # => true
myArray3 == myArray2 # => false
