The six relational operators < > <= >= = != each produce a true(1) or a false(0) result.
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}}.
