060. Many compilers evaluate ALL(x==y) efficiently with short-circuiting

topic: Arrays

Note

This tip is a draft1.

For a code that evaluates ALL(x==y) with a short-circuiting function and the intrinsic, gfortran, ifort, and nvfortran seem to short-circuit the intrinsic, so it may be OK to use ALL for large expressions.
