Comparison operators in python

Comparison operators are used when you have to compare two values. Following comparison operators in python are present:

1. > (greater than) operator
2. < (less than) operator
3. >= (greater than or equal to) operator
4. <= (less than or equal to) operator
5. == (equal) operator

> operator:

> operator is called as greater than operator. > operator is used when you have to check whether a variable value is greater than a specific value.

Example:

marks = 45
if marks > 40:
    print('You passed the exam.')
else:
    print('You failed the exam.')

Output:

You passed the exam.

< operator:

< operator is called as less than operator. < operator is used to checking whether a variable value is less than a specific value.

Example:

marks = 35
if marks < 40:
    print('You failed the exam.')
else:
    print('You passed the exam.')

Output:

You failed the exam.

>= operator:

>= operator is called as greater than or equal to operator. >= operator is used to checking whether a variable value is greater than or equal to a specific value.

Example:

if marks >= 40:
    print('You passed the exam.')
else:
    print('You failed the exam.')

Output:

You passed the exam.

<= operator:

<= operator is called as less than or equal to operator. <= operator is used to checking whether a variable value is less than or equal to a specific value.

Example:

marks = 39
if marks <= 39:
    print('You failed the exam.')
else:
    print('You passed the exam.')

Output:

You failed the exam.

== operator:

== is called as an equal operator. It is used to check whether two values are equal. It returns the result into a boolean value i.e either True or False.

Example:

marks = 40
if marks == 40:
    print('You passed the exam.')
else:
    print('You failed the exam.')

Output:

You passed the exam.
