Python - Relational Operators
Python 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 python.
Relational operators
Operator | Description | Example |
---|---|---|
< | Less than | x == y |
<= | Less than or equal to | x != y |
> | Greater than | x == y |
>= | Greater than or equal to | x != y |
- 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 ofx
is greater thany
you will getTrue
as value elseFalse
. - The resultant value for relational expression will always be boolean(
True
orFalse
).
# create variables
a = 10
b = 12
# value of a and b
print('Value of a is', a, 'and b is', b)
# > operator
print(a > b) # false
# < operator
print(a < b) # true
# >= operator
print(a >= b) # false
# <= operator
print(a <= b) # true
