Comparison
This topic introduces the comparison operators used in Logi JReport Server Guide v15:
x > y
date x > date y
If x is greater than y, the return value will be true. If x is < and == y, the return value will be false.
Example
The return value of the following statement is true.
ToDate(1999, 10, 10) > ToDate(1999, 2, 5)
datetime x > datetime y
If x is greater than y, the return value will be true. If x is < and == y, the return value will be false.
Example
The return value of the following statement is true.
ToDateTime(1999, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10) > ToDateTime(1999, 5, 10, 8, 5, 5)
numeric x > numeric y
If x is greater than y, the return value will be true. If x is < and == y, the return value will be false.
Examples
- The return value of the following statement is true.
3>2.56 - The return value of the following statement is false.
5.29>7.55
string x > string y
If x is greater than y, the return value will be true. If x is < and == y, the return value will be false.
Examples
- The return value of the following statement is true.
"string abcd" > "string abc" - The return value of the following statement is false.
"string abc" > "string abcd"
time x > time y
If x is greater than y, the return value will be true. If x is < and == y, the return value will be false.
Example
The return value of the following statement is true.
ToTime(10, 10, 10) > ToTime(8, 10, 10)
Back to topx < y
date x < date y
If x is less than y, the return value will be true. If x is > and == y, the return value will be false.
Example
The return value of the following statement is false.
ToDate(1999, 10, 10) < ToDate(1999, 2, 5)
datetime < datetime y
If x is less than y, the return value will be true. If x is > and == y, the return value will be false.
Example
The return value of the following statement is false.
ToDateTime(1999, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10) < ToDateTime(1999, 5, 10, 8, 5, 5)
numeric x < numeric y
If x is less than y, the return value will be true. If x is > and == y, the return value will be false.
Examples
- The return value of the following statement is true.
2.56<3 - The return value of the following statement is false.
7.55<5.88
string x < string y
If x is less than y, the return value will be true. If x is > and == y, the return value will be false.
Examples
- The return value of the following statement is true.
"string abc" < "string abcd" - The return value of the following statement is false.
"string abcd" < "string abc"
time x < time y
If x is less than y, the return value will be true. If x is > and == y, the return value will be false.
Example
The return value of the following statement is false.
ToTime(10, 10, 10) < ToTime(8, 10, 10)
x == y
date x == date y
If x is equal to y, the return value is true. If x is not equal to y, the return value will be false.
Example
The return value of the following statement is false.
ToDate(1999, 10, 10) == ToDate(1999, 5, 10)
datetime == datetime y
If x is equal to y, the return value will be true. If x is not equal to y, the return value will be false.
Example
The return value of the following statement is false.
ToDateTime(1999, 10, 10, 5, 10, 10) == ToDateTime(1999,10, 10, 10, 10, 10)
numeric x == numeric y
If x is equal to y, the return value will be true. If x is not equal to y, the return value will be false.
Example
The return value of the following statement is false.
5==4
string x == string y
If x is equal to y, the return value is true. If x is not equal to y, the return value will be false.
Example
The return value of the following statement is false.
"string abcd" == "string abc"
time x == time y
If x is equal to y, the return value will be true. If x is not equal to y, the return value will be false.
Example
The return value of the following statement is false.
ToTime(9, 10, 10) == ToTime(10, 10, 10)
x <> y or x != y
date x <> date y or date x != date y
If x is not equal to y, the return value will be true. If x is equal to y, the return value will be false.
Example
The return value of the following statement is true.
ToDate(1999, 10, 10) != ToDate(1999, 5, 10)
datetime x <> datetime y or datetime x != datetime y
If x is not equal to y, the return value will be true. If x is equal to y, the return value will be false.
Example
The return value of the following statement is true.
ToDateTime(1999, 10, 10, 5, 10, 10) != ToDateTime(1999,10, 10, 10, 10, 10)
numeric x <> numeric y or numeric x != numeric y
If x is not equal to y, the return value will be true. If x is equal to y, the return value will be false.
Example
The return value of the following statement is false.
4 <> 4
string x <> string y or string x != string y
If x is not equal to y, the return value will be true. If x is equal to y, the return value will be false.
Example
The return value of the following statement is true.
"string abc" != "string abcd"
time x <> time y or time x != time y
If x is not equal to y, the return value will be true. If x is equal to y, the return value will be false.
Example
The return value of the following statement is true.
ToTime(9, 10, 10) <> ToTime(10, 10, 10)
