Comparison Operators

Comparison operators are ways to compare data

• > means "greater than"

• >= means "at least"

• < means "less than"

• <= means "no more than"

• == means "equal to"

  <aside> 💡 Don't confuse == with =. = is for assignment while == is for checking equality

  </aside>

• != means "not equal to"

Example Code

# Comparison Operators

print(5 > 9)  # False
print(10 >= 9)  # True
print(5 < 9)  # True
print(10 <= 9)  # False

print(9 == 9)  # True
print(10 == 9)  # False

print(9 != 9)  # False
print(10 != 9)  # True
