Relational / Comparison Operators
What are Relational / Comparison Operators in C++?
Explanation
Relational operators are used to compare two values or expressions to evaluate the relationship. Following table lists the relational operators in C++.
Result :
b is less than a
In the above example the relational operator "<" is used to check if a is less than b. Thus comparison between two values or expression can be performed using this operator.
| Operator | Action |
| == | Equal to |
| != | Not equal to |
| > | Greater than |
| < | Less than |
| >= | Greater than or equal to |
| <= | Less than or equal to |
Example :
| #include <iostream.h> using namespace std; int main( ) { int a = 20; int b = 10; if ( a < b ) { cout << " a is less than b" ; } else { cout << "b is less than a"; } } |
Result :
b is less than a
In the above example the relational operator "<" is used to check if a is less than b. Thus comparison between two values or expression can be performed using this operator.
