Comparison

Process of checking if values are equal, different, or which one is larger.

Details

All comparison operations return a boolean value: true or false.

In programming, comparisons are done using relational operators and equality operators:

_{🤖 Pseudocode}

# Equality Operators
a == b  # a equals b
a != b  # a not equals b

# Relational Operators
a < b   # a is less than b
a <= b  # a is less than or equal to b
a > b   # a is greater than b
a >= b  # a is great than or equal to b

ℹ️ Not all programming languages use these exact operators; check Related Actions for more details.
