Clusters you compare must include the same number of elements, each element in the clusters must be of compatible types, and the elements must be in the same cluster order. For example, you can compare a cluster of a DBL and a string to a cluster of an I32 and a string.

In Compare Elements mode, Comparison functions return a cluster of Boolean elements, one for each corresponding element in the input clusters. In Compare Aggregates mode, Comparison functions return a single Boolean value. The function compares corresponding elements until it finds an inequality, which determines the result. The function considers the two clusters equal only if all elements are equal.
