These comprise the following: >
, greater than; <
, less than;
>=
, greater than or equals; <=
, less than or equals; =
,
equals; <>
not equals. These take two stack operands (or one stack
operand and a variable designator) perform the respective comparison and
push a boolean data type of true or false on the stack dependent on the
result. They can be used with numeric or string operands
(see section Reversed Equate String Operators). The boolean data type is interchangeable
with the numeric data type, but in
general can only subsequently be used by the boolean operators or the
conditional operator. All these operands can also be used to compare date
types, taking account of the format of a date.
