Rexx - Relational Operators

---

Relational Operators allow of the comparison of objects. Following are the relational operators available in Rexx. In Rexx the true value is denoted by 1 and the false value is denoted by 0.

Operator	Description	Example
==	Tests the equality between two objects	2 = 2 will give 1
<	Checks to see if the left object is less than the right operand.	2 < 3 will give 1
=<	Checks to see if the left object is less than or equal to the right operand.	2 =< 3 will give 1
>	Checks to see if the left object is greater than the right operand.	3 > 2 will give 1
>=	Checks to see if the left object is greater than or equal to the right operand.	3 > 2 will give 1

Example

The following program shows how the various operators can be used.

/* Main program*/ 
X = 3 
Y = 2 

say X > Y 
say X < Y 
say X >= Y 
say X <= Y 
say X == Y

The output of the above program will be −

1
0
1
