Comparison

Comparison functions help to keep Predict documentation and the actual implementation of an information processing system consistent. Comparison functions are needed because the external objects can be changed with utilities of the programming environment independent of Predict, even if protection options for external objects are activated. See function Protection in the section General Defaults in the Predict Administration documentation.
