Relational Operators Python
Relational operators are used to compare two variables.
It will return true , if the comparison or relation is true.
otherwise it will return false.
Example
Operator | Description | Example |
---|---|---|
== | Checks both left and right operands are same | 10 == 10 it will return true. 10 == 7 it will return false |
!= | Checks both left and right operands are not same. | 10 != 20 it will return true. 10 != 10 it will return false. |
< | Checks whether the left operand is smaller than the right operand. | 5 < 10 it will return true. 10 < 10 it will return false. |
<= | Checks whether the left operand is smaller than or equal to the right operand. | 10 <= 10 it will return true 20 <= 10 it will return false. |
> | Checks whether the left operand is greater than the right operand. | 50 > 10 it will return true 5 > 10 it will return false. |
>= | Checks whether the left operand is greater than or equal to the right operand. | 10 >= 10 it will return true 5 >= 10 it will return false. |
Relational Operators - Sample Program
Example
a = 5 b = 10 print(a == b) #return False print(a != b) #return True print(a < b) #return True print(a <= b) #return True print(a > b) #return False print(a >= b) #return False
Relational operators are frequently used in decision making and looping statements. We will discuss about it in the future topics.
