title: What's the difference between hamcrest.core.IsEqual.equalTo() and hamcrest.CoreMatchers.equalTo()
body: <p>The documentation is identical:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><a href="http://hamcrest.org/JavaHamcrest/javadoc/1.3/org/hamcrest/CoreMatchers.html#equalTo(T)" rel="nofollow">org.hamcrest.CoreMatchers.equalTo</a></li>
  <li><a href="http://hamcrest.org/JavaHamcrest/javadoc/1.3/org/hamcrest/core/IsEqual.html#equalTo(T)" rel="nofollow">org.hamcrest.core.IsEqual</a></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Is using one version preferable to the others?</p>
  
  <p>And from the comments it appears that there is a third version:
