check_exact : bool, default False
Whether to compare number exactly.
check_dtype: bool, default True
check dtype if both a and b are the same type
check_dtype : bool / string {'equiv'}, default False
Check dtype if both a and b are the same type. If 'equiv' is passed in,
then `RangeIndex` and `Int64Index` are also considered equivalent
when doing type checking.
check_less_precise : bool or int, default False
Specify comparison precision. Only used when `check_exact` is False.
5 digits (False) or 3 digits (True) after decimal points are compared.
