[julia-users] issue with 0.0 = -0.0

[Davide Lasagna]

I understand the reason why -0.0 == 0.0, but then this should happen also 
for two objects of the same type that have 0.0 and -0.0 as the value of 
their single field as shown below.

julia> -0.0 == 0.0
  true

julia> type foo
           a::Float64
       end 

julia> b = foo(-0.0)
  foo(-0.0)

julia> a = foo(0.0)
  foo(0.0)

julia> a == b
  false

Where should I look at?

Cheers
