C# Comparison Operators

The C# comparison operator is used to compare two operands. It returns true or false based on comparison. The complete list of comparison operators are listed in a table.


Consider x is a variable and the value assigned the x=2 then,

Operator	Name	Examples
<	Less than	x<5 (returns true)
>	Greater than	x>5 (returns false)
<=	Less than equal to	x<=2 (returns true)
>=	Greater than equal to	x>=2 (returns true)
==	Equal equal to	x==2 (returns true)
!=	Not equal to	x!=2 (returns false)

Examples:

---

using System;

namespace Comparison_Operator
{
  class Program
   {
     static void Main(string[] args)
      {
        int num1, num2;

        //Accepting two inputs from the user
        Console.Write("Enter first number\t");
        num1 = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
        Console.Write("Enter second number\t");
        num2 = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());

        //Processing comparison
        //Check whether num1 is greater than or not
        if (num1 > num2)
         {
           Console.WriteLine("{0} is greater than {1}", num1, num2);
         }
        //Check whether num2 is greater than or not
        else if (num2 > num1)
         {
           Console.WriteLine("{0} is greater than {1}", num2, num1);
         }
        else
         {
           Console.WriteLine("{0} and {1} are equal", num1, num2);
         } 
        Console.ReadLine();          
      }
   }
}
