Summary: Error in comparison documentation

Initial Comment:
Hi,

libstdtypes.tex line 147-148 reads:
Objects of different types, except different numeric types,
never compare equal;

However, this is incorrect, because u"" == "" but
u"".class != "".class.

This should be:
Objects of different types, except different numeric types
and different string types, never compare equal;

...or something similar.

The attached patch fixes this.

yours,
Gerrit.
