Relational Operators
The six relational operators < > <= >= = !=
each produce a true(1) or a false(0) result.
As we will soon see you can also apply function-style equivalents to entire sequences to yield nested lists of true/false, eg
8.8 < 8.7 -- 8.8 less than 8.7 (false)
-4.4 > -4.3 -- -4.4 greater than -4.3 (false)
8 <= 7 -- 8 less than or equal to 7 (false)
4 >= 4 -- 4 greater than or equal to 4 (true)
1 = 10 -- 1 equal to 10 (false)
8.7 != 8.8 -- 8.7 not equal to 8.8 (true)
{1,2,3} = {4,5,6} -- {1,2,3} equal to {4,5,6} (false)
{7,8,9} = {7,8,9} -- {7,8,9} equal to {7,8,9} (true)
Note that the last two examples are incompatible with Euphoria, which produces the same results as the Phix-only
sq_eq() builtin.
As we will soon see you can also apply function-style equivalents to entire sequences to yield nested lists of true/false, eg
sq_lt({8.8,{8.7,8.6}},8.7) ==>; {false,{false,true}}.
