Compare two values. Returns 1 when x > y, -1 when x < y, and 0 when x == y.
x and y are considered equal when the relative difference between x and y
is smaller than the configured epsilon. The function cannot be used to
compare values smaller than approximately 2.22e-16.
For matrices, the function is evaluated element wise.
```js
math.compare(x, y)
```

math.compare(7, 7); // returns 0
var a = math.unit('5 cm');
var b = math.unit('40 mm');
math.compare(a, b); // returns 1
math.compare(2, [1, 2, 3]); // returns [1, 0, -1]
