Java provides operators that can be used to check the relationship between values or values within variables also known as operands.

All relational operators, less than(<), less than or equal to(<=), greater than(>), greater than and equal to(>=) gives resultant value in boolean i.e either true or false after evaluation.

In this article, you will find Relational operators provided by Java.

Relational operators

• All of these relational operators are binary operators.
• All these relational operators also follow the general structure of Operand Operator Operand, meaning that an operator is always surrounded by two operands.
• For example, an expression x >= y is a binary operation, where x and y are two operands and >= is an operator. If value of x is greater than y you will get true as value else false.

class RelationalOperatorsDemo
{
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        // create variables
        int a = 10, b = 12;

        // value of a and b
        System.out.println("Value of a is " + a + " and b is " + b);

        // > operator
        System.out.println(a > b); // false

        // < operator
        System.out.println(a < b); // true

        // >= operator
        System.out.println(a >= b); // false

        // <= operator
        System.out.println(a <= b); // true
    }
}
