Well, there are many:
cmp is a byte by byte compare.
diff has many options for line comparison and difference detection.
If your sort unique the data, the comm command allows you to see the common lines, first file only lines, second file only lines, or any combination.
Comparing cksum or MD5 values is useful in some situations, like if the files are not co-located.
