# Equals / Not Equals
This is a boolean operator that will return `true` if the LHS is equal to the RHS and `false` otherwise.
```
.a == .b
```
It is most often used with the select operator to find particular nodes:
```
select(.a == .b)
```
The not equals `!=` operator returns `false` if the LHS is equal to the RHS.
