"We consider two partitions of a vector to be identical if they match, ignoring prototypes."
If two arrays match, their prototypes also match.
If the final phrase has any non-trivial meaning that must be one of:
- "ignoring zero-length divisions"
- "ignoring divisions of any length that match their own prototypes."
In neither case do they coincide with the prototype of the partition itself unless the first division is itself one or other of them. The second could be formed from a blank length of the original vector so could not be ignored.
I suggest using "zero-length divisions". --Phil Last (talk) 16:02, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
