There are two versions: One taking an explicit predicate, and another which requires sequences of Equatable elements.

As far as I can tell from the implementation at https://github.com/apple/swift/blob/master/stdlib/public/core/SequenceAlgorithms.swift.gyb#L292 <https://github.com/apple/swift/blob/master/stdlib/public/core/SequenceAlgorithms.swift.gyb#L292> , the length is not checked a-priori, so you might want to add that to your code: class Tree : Equatable { let rootData:Int = 0 let children:[(String, Tree)] = [] static public func ==(_ lhs:Tree, _ rhs:Tree) -> Bool { return lhs.rootData == rhs.rootData && lhs.children.count == rhs.children.count && lhs.children.elementsEqual(rhs.children, by: ==) } } > > But again, that’s a great one to know. > >> On Jul 9, 2017, at 12:14 PM, Martin R via swift-users <swift-users@swift.org >> <mailto:swift-users@swift.org>> wrote: >> >> >>> On 9.
