# xarray.Dataset.broadcast_equals

`Dataset.``broadcast_equals`(other: xarray.core.dataset.Dataset) → bool

  Two Datasets are broadcast equal if they are equal after broadcasting all variables against each other.

  For example, variables that are scalar in one dataset but non-scalar in the other dataset can still be broadcast equal if the the non-scalar variable is a constant.
