# equals

Compare this image to another image to see if they are the same.

```sig
image.create(0, 0).equals(null)
```

Each pixel in the image is compared with another image. If all the pixels in both images are identical, then the images are considered "equal".

## Parameters

* **other**: the other image to compare this one to.

## Returns

* a [boolean](/types/boolean) value that is `true` if all of the pixels in the two images are identical, or a value of `false` otherwise.

## Example #example

Create sprite with using a `burger` image. Create just an image of the same burger using a variable. Compare that image with the image in the sprite to see if they are equal.

```blocks
let mySprite = sprites.create(img`
