Table 53: Operator Actions (continued)
ActionOperatorOperation
Evaluates as true (returns a 1) if the element to the left
of the operator is greater than the expression to the right
of the operator; otherwise the result is false (0)
>Greater than
Evaluates as true (returns a 1) if the element to the left
of the operator is less than or equal to the expression to
the right of the operator; otherwise the result is false (0)
<=Less than or equal to
Evaluates as true (returns a 1) if the element to the left
of the operator is greater than or equal to the expression
to the right of the operator; otherwise the result is false
(0)
>=Greater than or equal to
Evaluates as true (returns a 1) if the element to the left
of the operator is equivalent to the expression to the
right of the operator; otherwise the result is false (0)
=Equal to
Evaluates as true (returns a 1) if the element to the left
of the operator is not equal to the expression to the right
of the operator; otherwise the result is false (0)
!=Not equal to (logical NOT)
Evaluates as true (returns a 1) if the values of either the
left or right sides is nonzero; evaluation halts at the first
true (1) expression
||Logical OR
Evaluates as true (returns a 1) if the values of the left
and right sides are both nonzero; evaluation halts at the
first false (0) expression
&&Logical AND
