It is also known as Relational operators. It is used to compare values. It returns either True or False according to the condition.
| Operators | Description | Syntax |
| Greater than(>) | If left operand is greater than the right it returns True. | a > b |
| Less than(<) | If left operand is less than right it returns True. | a < b |
| Equal (==) | If left and right operands are equal it returns True. | a == b |
| Not Equal(!=) | If operands are not equal it returns True. | a != b |
| Greater than or equal to(>=) | If left operand is greater than or equal to the right it returns True. | a >= b |
| Less than or equal to(<=) | If left operand is less than or equal to the right it returns True. | a <= b |
Example:
a=3
b=5
if (a == b):
print ("a is equal to b")
else:
print ("a is not equal to b")
if (a != b):
print ("a is not equal to b")
else:
print ("a is equal to b")
if (a < b):
print ("a is less than b" )
else:
print ("a is not less than b")
if (a > b):
print ("a is greater than b")
else:
print ("a is not greater than b")
if (a <= b):
print ("a is either less than or equal to b")
else:
print("a is neither less than nor equal to b")
if (b >= a):
print ("b is either greater than or equal to b")
else:
print ("b is neither greater than nor equal to b")Output:
a is not equal to b a is not equal to b a is less than b a is not greater than b a is either less than or equal to b b is either greater than or equal to b
