# MLCComparisonLayer

A layer that performs elementwise comparison of two tensors.

```
class MLCComparisonLayer
```

## Overview

The layer returns a tensor with the shape equal to the largest shape of operations. It fills with the Boolean value `result[i] = op1[i] ? op2[i]`, where `?` corresponds to the  [`MLCComparisonOperation`](/documentation/MLCompute/MLCComparisonOperation) you specify.

## Topics

### Creating Comparison Layers

[`init(operation:)`](/documentation/MLCompute/MLCComparisonLayer/init(operation:))

[`MLCComparisonOperation`](/documentation/MLCompute/MLCComparisonOperation)

A comparison operation.

### Inspecting Comparison Layers

[`operation`](/documentation/MLCompute/MLCComparisonLayer/operation)

The comparison layer’s operation.
