%  IsImagesEqual() measures the difference between colors at each pixel
%  location of two images.  A value other than 0 means the colors match
%  exactly.  Otherwise an error measure is computed by summing over all
%  pixels in an image the distance squared in RGB space between each image
%  pixel and its corresponding pixel in the reconstruct image.  The error
%  measure is assigned to these image members:
%
%    o mean_error_per_pixel:  The mean error for any single pixel in
%      the image.
%
%    o normalized_mean_error:  The normalized mean quantization error for
%      any single pixel in the image.  This distance measure is normalized to
%      a range between 0 and 1.  It is independent of the range of red, green,
%      and blue values in the image.
%
%    o normalized_maximum_error:  The normalized maximum quantization
%      error for any single pixel in the image.  This distance measure is
%      normalized to a range between 0 and 1.  It is independent of the range
%      of red, green, and blue values in your image.
%
%  A small normalized mean square error, accessed as
%  image->normalized_mean_error, suggests the images are very similar in
%  spatial layout and color.
%
%  The format of the IsImagesEqual method is:
%
%      MagickBooleanType IsImagesEqual(Image *image,
%        const Image *reconstruct_image,ExceptionInfo *exception)
%
%  A description of each parameter follows.
