  • Method Details

    • isEquivalent

      boolean isEquivalent(T obj1, T obj2)
      Checks whether the specified objects are equivalent
      Parameters:
      obj1 - an object of the type-parameter
      obj2 - an object of the type-parameter
      Returns:
      true if both theories are equivalent

    • isEquivalent

      boolean isEquivalent(Collection<T> objects)
      Checks whether the specified objects are equivalent, in a sense that every single object is equivalent to every other object in the set
      Parameters:
      objects - A collection of objects of the type-parameter
      Returns:
      TRUE iff all objects are equivalent
