Fixed Inappropriate Logical Expression
Summary
This PR fixes a logical bug in your codebase.
Description
While triaging your project, our bug fixing tool generated the following message(s)-
In file: faker.go, a logical equality check operation is performed between two
reflect.Valueinstances that represent run-time data. This is incorrect because it compares thereflectpackage's internal representations, which is typically not intended. Instead, the intent is most likely to compare the underlying values. iCR suggested that such comparison should be done withvalue.Interface().
Changes
I have changed the comparison by using a.Interface() on the left side.
