30`equal` returns `true` if `distance(rng1)` is equal to the `distance(rng2)` and for each element `x` in `rng1`, the corresponding element `y` in `rng2` is equal. Otherwise `false` is returned.
31
32In this range version of `equal` it is perfectly acceptable to pass in two ranges of unequal lengths.
33
34Elements are considered equal in the non-predicate version if `operator==` returns `true`. Elements are considered equal in the predicate version if `pred(x,y)` is `true`.

40[heading Requirements]
41
42[*For the non-predicate versions:]
43
44* `SinglePassRange1` is a model of the __single_pass_range__ Concept.
45* `SinglePassRange2` is a model of the __single_pass_range__ Concept.
46* `SinglePassRange1`'s value type is a model of the `EqualityComparableConcept`.
47* `SinglePassRange2`'s value type is a model of the `EqualityComparableConcept`.
48* `SinglePassRange1`'s value type can be compared for equality with `SinglePassRange2`'s value type.
49
50[*For the predicate versions:]
51
52* `SinglePassRange1` is a model of the __single_pass_range__ Concept.
53* `SinglePassRange2` is a model of the __single_pass_range__ Concept.
54* `BinaryPredicate` is a model of the `BinaryPredicateConcept`.
55* `SinglePassRange1`'s value type is convertible to `BinaryPredicate`'s first argument type.
56* `SinglePassRange2`'s value type is convertible to `BinaryPredicate`'s second argument type.

58[heading Complexity]
