> (greater than) operator
Type | Assocation | Precedence | Input types | Output types |
binary | left | 3 | int float | bool |
This operator compares the first operand to the second operand and returns true if the first operand is larger, or false otherwise. Examples:
3 > 2 ; true 5 > 5 ; false 2.12 > 3 ; false 4.23 > 3.86 ; true
Notes
- This operator can also be used with complex operands (in which case it only compares the real parts), but this is not recommended and results in a compiler warning. You should use real, imag, cabs, or the |…| operator when comparing complex expressions.
- a > b is equal to !(a <= b)
