Determines whether the specified object is a Point and whether it contains the same values as this Point.

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Overrides Function Equals ( _
    o As Object _

    Object o
)

Parameters

Return Value

Type: System.Boolean
true if obj is a Point and contains the same X and Y values as this Point; otherwise, false.

Remarks

Point coordinates are described using Double values. Because the value of a Double can lose precision when operated upon, a comparison between two Double values that are logically equal might fail.
