Are the pairs (x,y) belong to some lattice or can change continuously? Does f assume some discrete values (or is constant on sets of positive measure)? If not then it will be hard to randomly select x and y which satisfy the exact equality (this still can happen since there are finitely many computer numbers, but their number is quite large!). So if f change continuously you may need the condition |f(x,y) - c| < epsilon for some epsilon > 0.
