each other to see if they have the same shape and elements. NaNs in
the same location are considered equal. The column headers do not
need to have the same type, but the elements within the columns must
be the same dtype.

numpy.array_equal : Return True if two arrays have the same shape
and elements, False otherwise.

Notes
-----
This function requires that the elements have the same dtype as their
respective elements in the other Series or DataFrame. However, the
column labels do not need to have the same type, as long as they are
still considered equal.

Examples
--------
>>> df = pd.DataFrame({1: [10], 2: [20]})
