Overview
Relational operators compare two given values and return a boolean value, most commonly used in conditional statements.
The following is a list of Relational Operators:
- < (Lesser than)
Example:
(x < y) // True if x is lesser than y, otherwise false
(1 < 2) // True - > (Greater than)
Example:
(x > y) // True if x is greater than y, otherwise false
(1 > 2) // False - <= (Lesser than or equal to)
Example:
(x <= y) // True if x is lesser than or equal to y, otherwise false
(1 <= 2) // True - >= (Greater than or equal to)
Example:
(x >= y) // True if x is greater than or equal to y, otherwise false
(1 >= 2) // False - == (Equals)
Example:
(x == y) // True if x is equal to y, otherwise false
(1 == 2) // False - != (Not equals)
Example:
(x != y) // True if x is not equal to y, otherwise false
(1 != 2) // True
Data types applicable to Relational Operators
- Number
- Decimal
- Date-time
- Text (only for 'Equals' operator)
