title: Is the inequality operator faster than the equality operator?
body: <p>I know this is a micro-optimization, so I ask out of pure curiosity. </p>
  
  <p>Logically, a microprocessor does not need to compare all the bits of both operands of an equality operator in order to determine a "FALSE" result.</p>
  
  <p>Note, this is programming-related because it affects the execution speed of a program.</p>
