namespace boost { namespace hana {
    //! Returns a `Logical` representing whether `x` is not equal to `y`.
    //! @ingroup group-Comparable
    //!
    //! The `not_equal` function can be called in two different ways. First,
    //! it can be called like a normal function:
    //! @code
    //!     not_equal(x, y)
    //! @endcode
    //!
    //! However, it may also be partially applied to an argument by using
    //! `not_equal.to`:
    //! @code
    //!     not_equal.to(x)(y) == not_equal(x, y)
    //! @endcode
    //!
    //! In other words, `not_equal.to(x)` is a function object that is
    //! equivalent to `partial(not_equal, x)`. This is provided to enhance
    //! the readability of some constructs, especially when using higher
    //! order algorithms.
    //!
    //!
    //! Signature
    //! ---------
    //! Given a Logical `Bool` and two Comparables `A` and `B` that
    //! share a common embedding, the signature is
    //! @f$ \mathtt{not\_equal} : A \times B \to Bool @f$.
    //!
    //! @param x, y
    //! Two objects to compare for inequality.
    //!
    //!
    //! Example
    //! -------
    //! @include example/not_equal.cpp
