template<class T, class U> bool operator==(const shared_ptr<T>& a, const shared_ptr<U>& b) noexcept;
1
#
Returns: a.get() == b.get().
template<class T, class U> bool operator<(const shared_ptr<T>& a, const shared_ptr<U>& b) noexcept;
2
#
Returns: less<>()(a.get(), b.get()).

[ Note
:
Defining a comparison function allows shared_­ptr objects to be used as keys in associative containers.
