| Sep 7, 2011 at 14:01 | comment | added | Vinoth Kumar C M | In this case, I am referring to two objects being equal in a "meaningful way". For example two Employee objects are equal if they have the same employee ID, rather than say they wear the same color shirt. | |
| Sep 7, 2011 at 13:44 | comment | added | David Thornley | I'd rather see a comment explaining what equality means for this object. "Equality" is a slippery term. In Common Lisp, there are numerous equality functions, and you pick the appropriate one on use. | |

| Sep 7, 2011 at 12:28 | comment | added | c_maker | Your current comment is incorrect. Your method signature is correct in taking a generic Object, but your comment says 'object of same type'. | |
