> Array comparisons compare the array contents element-by-element,
using the default B-tree comparison function for the element data type.
In multidimensional arrays the elements are visited in row-major order
(last subscript varies most rapidly).
If the contents of two arrays are equal but the dimensionality is
different, the first difference in the dimensionality information
determines the sort order. (This is a change from versions of
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>PostgreSQL</SPAN
> prior to 8.2: older versions would claim
that two arrays with the same contents were equal, even if the
number of dimensions or subscript ranges were different.)
