Comparison operators are used to compare two values and return a boolean result (true or false).
What is a Comparison Operator?
A comparison operator is one or more symbols that tells the computer how to compare two values or variables.
The result of a comparison operator is a boolean value ( true or false ).
The most common comparison operators are
- == (Equal to)
- != (Not equal to)
- > (Greater than)
- < (Less than)
- >= (Greater than or equal to)
- <= (Less than or equal to)
In the example below, we use the == operator to compare the value 10 with the value 5 , to check if they are equal:
Runnable example
print(10 == 5)
