Yes, the same kind of difference that between = and ==
"toto" <> "toto"
=> false

"toto" != "toto
=> true

let x = "toto" in x != x
=> false

It is a difference between structural equality (deep equality) and  
physical equality (shallow equality, or "pointer" equality).

By the way, one wonderful thing with computer science is that you can  
ask many questions to the machine :)
