# ==(_:_:) Returns a Boolean value indicating whether two ranges are equal. ``` static func == (lhs: Range, rhs: Range) -> Bool ``` ## Parameters `lhs` A range to compare. `rhs` Another range to compare. ## Discussion Two ranges are equal when they have the same lower and upper bounds. That requirement holds even for empty ranges. ``` let x = 5..<15 print(x == 5..<15) // Prints "true" let y = 5..<5 print(y == 15..<15) // Prints "false" ``` --- Copyright © 2026 Apple Inc.
